Several folk I know have had success with fine reader and another which I 
cannot remember the name of right now.  This is driver dependant but thanks for 
the info on this new software.

What OCR software do you prefer for using on mac? I've tested several  brands 
like FineReader, I.R.I.s. and Prizmo, bot none of them realy had convinced me. 
The one I've  purchased finally    is called ExactScan Pro. Developer of that 
great peace of software is ExactCode, a relatively new startup company 
localized in Berlin, Germany. But don't worry, they are completely related to 
international market, so the overlay   of thair apps comes in several languges. 
The app automaticly detect the primary localization of the machine it had been 
installed and allways provides the correct menu language. ExactScan Pro comes 
with ready to run scanner drivers for over 300 models. It auto detect what 
scanners are connected to the mac and arrange the collrect driver so all things 
are ready to run immediately after install procedure.
To my personal oppinion, one   of the highlights of ExactScan Pro is the 
extremely flexible purpose profile concept that allows perfect optimizations 
for nearly any kind of work. You may ether use one of the given presets or you 
may create a totally new one, depending e.g. on the used paper document or 
image file. No need to mention that this app is able to handle both kinds of 
documents. You may open the result of any processed Page with any editor or 
viewer of your choice. There are several features that supports the needs of 
the VIP comunity. e.g. AutoRotate. All overlay objects and buttons are clearly 
labeled. The app runs very well with VoiceOver.

You may get ExactScan Pro at the Mac App Store. I don't know how much it is in 
dollars, Here in germany it's arround 109 €
