Hi Mayrie,
No, I haven't tried that, but I'll remember that. So far so good changing the margins to audo, seems to have helped. Thanks.

Hi Georgina,

I have noticed that when scanning sometimes recognition doesn't work
as well as it should because the recognition engine thinks the page is
facing in a direction that it isn't. If you try rescanning a problem page, actually telling the program under settings, and scanning what direction the
top of the page will be facing might do the trick.  Unless, of course, you
already tried that.

Good luck!

Mayrie

Its a hardback, the book is laying flat on the scanner, single page
scanning, and columns are enabled, and when I look under margins it says
disabled.  Threshold is dynamic, and the text is normal.
Thanks.

I don't understand what precisely is the problem.  What size is the
book: trade, mass market, hardback?  What page and column settings are you
using? What margins if any? What position have you got the book in on the
scanner?
Like that.
Thanks.

Hi All-- I was wondering if anybody was scanning using an Epson 4490. I'm having trouble getting all of the text on the page. Sometimes Kurzweil
wil say page complete, and other times it won't.  Is there some general
settings I can use?  I'm wondering if the problem is the Kurzweil settings
or could it be my scanner.  Thanks.
