screen after the OCR process is completed.

written letter or a document with color text or color page.

Scan a clean document that contains, preferably, one column and has
black text on a white page.

The scanner is not in the list of supported scanners in other
commercial software.

Unable to scan from other software other than the one that came
with the scanner.

Enter the Scanner Setup within the program, Select TWAIN and you will
see your scanner listed.

scanned using higher resolution modes will take a considerable amount
of disk space.

but it does not look good when I export the image to another
