I just purchased an IMSI hand scanner from a company called TREDEX. This
scanner is 200 dpi and comes with a totally user unfriendly program called
Imsi Presentation graphics. You can scan in in image, however you cannot
see that whole thing at one time unless you print, and you cannot resize. I
have been writing the files out as PCX files, importing into Pagemaker and
messing around with the picture. Two questions:
1) Is there any scanning package that will recognize the IMSI SCANNER and allow
me to edit/rescan/modify images? (A4 scan package does not work!)
2) Is there a reasonably priced OCR package available that works from PCX files?
BTW, the scanners are selling for $39., and are definitely worth it...
Any info/pointers would be appreciated
