[comp.sys.dec] scanners and OCR for DECstation 3100

na0i+@andrew.cmu.edu (Nenad Antonic) (04/11/91)

	Are there some reasonably priced Optical Character Recognition
programs for DECstation (or UNIX in general)? What are the choices for 
scanners?
	For example, on MACs the scanner is connected via SCSI port, and
there are many programs for OCR (like OmniPage, that I have tried). But, I have
a DECstation (that I use for other things), and I certainly cannot
afford the second
system.

	Thanks for any help
