Yes, I'd thought about that. That's the reason I didn't get one of the ones that works on the phone. If you send it for processing, who knows what happens to your image? Getting a good scan with a phone camera takes a bit of work too, I have found, though I can make it work. The last time I tried OCR though, which was the built-in Windows 10 one, on a scanned PDF, it made a complete mess of the output.

I am told that knfb reader is now available for windows pcs, though have not tried it as it only works in 10, and I seem to recall if you have it for one platform its cheaper for another but its been a while since I looked. Other than that, what about the Cloud ocr Microsoft seem to be always talking about?
I don't know much about it as I'm using omnipage on a cannon and have used abbey, which althoug OK does seem to have issues ith i and l making my friend della into delia and new maldent high street into new maiden high street.

Subject: [nvda] Scanner / OCR recommendation

Hi everyone,

I've got a query about a standalone scanner. Is the OCR software which
comes with any of the scanners such as Epson or Canon accessible (or even
have an accessible Word plugin), or which third-party OCR would be worth
considering?

I've personally used Omnipage and Abbyy in the past, and also had a scanner
with an OCR plugin for Word that worked well, even though the main software
wasn't great, but I haven't looked at anything recently to recommend.

Kind regards

Quentin.

I was wondering the same thing. I currently have a phone and computer but not a standalone scanner. How good is OCR these days? Should I get a scanner for things like legal documents and other important stuff. I don't always have people handy to read things. What's the most accurate software anyway? Is there something reasonably portable?

Funny this. I had this happen just now in an older firefox, but on a restart

of nvda all went back to normal.

I was using the latest master at the time.

Something odd in javascript perhaps?

Hello

If I go to paypal.com with latest NVDA and also the firefox download site

does the same thing, nvda2018.1 rc1. It briefly shows the links and stuff

and then when I arrow up and down, it just gets stuck on send money, no

links, no nothing. Is there something wrong with chrome and the latest nvda?

Also same thing with firefox. I had to use edge to get the latest firefox

because chrome got stuck on the download firefox words, no links showed  on

the site. They show for a very brief time then disappear. What could be

going on?

Hi,

I am not Rick but, I am using the current version of abby and it works quite well.  I hope this helps.

HI.

You remind me here that I have been interested in this program for some time.

You say you are using an older version (11). What do you know about the current available versions? Perhaps, from an accessibility standpoint, specifically. I suppose if I were to buy the program, I would be getting the latest version, so before that happens, I’d want to make sure it works as well as yours does, you know?

Evening, or at least here in New England it is.

I have been using Abby FineReader for years. It is my original version 11 and it is running well under Windows 10. Right now my scanner is part of my Cannon printer, and though a one page at a time model, it serves very well. Abby is remarkably accurate and will scan to a wide variety of formats including Word, Excel and Epic.

One of the little things I like about it is that when installed, it adds itself to the context menu. Find a PDF file , hit the context key, arrow down to Abby and press the right arrow to view the options of formats you can convert to. Press the enter key and Abby opens and converts the file and then opens it in the correct app.

The only change I would make right now is to move to a scanner with a document feeder. I am also serious about moving up several generations of Abby.

Honestly I owe Abby the purchase of a newer version. Over the years with several major crashes, support has been quick and clear and restoration was very simple.

Good luck finding a solution that works, does not require fifty key presses and most important does not cost too much. I am a firm believer in an application that does a single job, but does it very well.

As for OCR on an iPad, if you have not tried Seeing AI, it is quite  a program, with a variety of  functions and if is free on the Appstore. Interestingly it was developed and is well maintained by Microsoft.

Disclaimer here: I do not work for Abby nor do I sell any of their products. Feel free to contact me off list if I can be of help, or just ask questions here.

If that really is the site Anthony's talking about (I await his
confirmation), then there are MP3 URLs embedded in the source code of
the podcast pages, and those URLs can be downloaded as offline-playable MP3s.

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a standard pattern for
converting a podcast page URL to the corresponding MP3 download URL,
but it's certainly possible to download the podcasts.

I found the URLs by starting from a page with the player on it,
pressing the Windows Context key (without any link focused) and then
selecting "View Page Info" from the context menu which appears. If
you then move one icon to the right (from "General" to "Media"), you
get a list of all the media links on the page, and one of them is the downloadable MP3.


I hope that helps,


Antony.

was developed by Carlos, who ran a list and unexpectedly and very
unfortunately died recently. He wanted to make a very simple recording
program with a loop back ability for blind people to use and he added a
Windows GUI to what was a command line program.

but from what site? Give us the actual address--not just that it's a
technology site. You're not helping us.

The problem is that we don't know what you are trying to download, and
the
instructions for how to download it may be different depending on what
it
is.

Show us a URL for the podcast, or at least for a page containing a link
to
it, and we can take a look for ourselves to try and help you.

Until you show us the specific thing you want to download, we're just
guessing at the best way to do it, and that's both inefficient and
potentially unhelpful.

Hi brian
The problem was not to play it but to download it from a website.

But you could easily play it in any media player. You need to tell us
what file type it is.
Some are playlist files, ie the playlist is downloaded and this has
the address in it of the file and its type.

But when you press enter on the link, what happens? Does it play In
Media Player? I believe someone described how to download a file
such as a podcast playing in Windows Media Player. But before that
method is of any use to you, does the file open in the player?

How are you getting to the podcast in the first place? Is it
playing in Media Player?
