In response to the individual seeking scanners for Sun Workstations... I used to work for a company now called Calera Recognition Systems (formerly The Palantir Corporation of Santa Clara, CA; not to be confused with the software house from Texas). Calera Recognition Systems 2500 Augustine Drive Santa Clara, CA 95054 These folks specialize in OCR, both text and image processing on a single page (one-pass). If you are considering OCR, give these folks a call, they work well with several scanners, including one which they build. These folks offer a SCSI-bus version of their product (which, incidently, was developed on Sun Workstations). They have experience integrating several scanners with Suns and/or PC's. If you are considering just image for now, but possibly OCR in the not-so-distant future, you might want to give them a call to save some hardware costs by some easy early planning. Good folks there, tell them I sent you... Richard J. Senghas Administrative Information Systems UC Santa Cruz aisrjs@ucscc.ucsc.edu (p.s. Any of the above is my own recommendation and should not be attributed to the University of California nor to Administrative Information Systems. I no longer am an employee of Calera as well, nor receive any compensation whatsoever for endorsing.... You get the drift. :-)
