Hi folks. So far, I have only scanned one or two pages at a time
with SharpEye + Lime + Goodfeel. Note, I have the latest Goodfeel
package.
Now I want to attempt a big project over the summer. I have two
textbooks, both containing lots of music notation and paragraphs of
text, and both several hundred pages in length. What's the best
strategy for attacking something big like this? Will SharpEye
retain the paragraphs or pages of text, or will I have to re-scan
the book in another program, like Openbook, to get the text, then
splice in the music examples?
Has anybody else here attempted a whole textbook like this?
thanks for any suggestions. Just wanting to keep the process as
efficient and streamlined as possible. *grin*

P.S. Besides the software that came with my HP 6350C scanner the HP
Precision Scan Pro application, I also have Openbook 7.02. I
mention this because it also has an image only setting, and people
report that it's output is very easy to read when I scan a page and
send it to them as graphics. Is there any advantage to using this
rather than the HP software, as a frontend for SharpEye?
