[comp.text] Spelling checkers for OCR programs

ath@prosys.se (Anders Thulin) (11/30/90)

Are there any spelling checkers suitable for output from OCR programs?
I am thinking of spellers that know about common substitution errors
that OCR programs make (such as i -> l, h -> 4, cl -> d, etc). They
should also be able to recognize the character used for recognition
errors (often ~, @) and do something useful.

I have heard of of OmniSpell (from Caere), but according to MacWorld
it doesn't do half of what it claims.

Are there any other?
