(Bellevue, April 5 2011) Picking an OCR software package can be a
confusing ordeal. While many printer packages ship with OCR packages,
most of these are underpowered, watered down, or just incompatible with
the depth, scale, and range of many OCR software users. ixDownload.com,
the Internet's leading authority on software downloads, software guides,
and technology issues, has released a definitive guide for consumers of
OCR software.
The guide, a clear product of ixDownload.com's user needs-centered
orientation, steers consumers through the tangled mass of issues facing
many OCR software packages.
"Our goal is to arm the consumer with the necessary questions to ask
so they can competently compare OCR software packages free of the hype,
confusion, and misinformation out there," says ixDownload.com principal
Oliver Thompson. There are many myths surrounding OCR software and
these have generated a lot of confusion in the minds of buyers. One
particularly powerful myth is that if a software package ships with the
scanner you buy, it is the right package for that particular scanner.
"This is a particularly bad myth because it often means scanner buyers
don't get the full range of features their scanners are capable of. In a
sense, its like buying a Porsche Carrera but you only drive it at 35
miles per hour," says Thompson. ixDownload.com's guide lets consumers
pick out OCR software that can truly unlock the potential of a good
scanner by focusing on features above and beyond scanning conversion—the
most important being accuracy. "The blunt truth is that the OCR
package your scanner shipped with might be incapable of matching your
scanner's scanning ability with the high level of accuracy and
conversion it deserves," says Thompson.
ixDownload.com's OCR software guide frees consumers from the
restrictions of using the possibly underpowered conversion software
their scanner shipped with. "Our guide also trains the consumer's eyes
on other key functions in the scanning process—document formating,
supported save formats, ease of use, and other crucial considrations,"
says Thompson. OCR conversion of documents from hard copy to soft copy
doesn't just stop at conversion—it also involves being able to edit the
final document as well as being able to accurately convert non-text
elements into editable format.
"ixdownload.com's guide covers the most important factors involved in
purchasing OCR software. Our guide ensures that you get full value for
your purchased hardware as well as protecting you from obsolecense and
hidden costs", says Thompson.
