Questions & Answers

Workarounds for hosting Omnipage 18 Professional on Windows 8 Is OCR not working for you? If not, what program does?

I don't know whether this directly answers your question but I thought it might be helpful. After purchasing this program, I tried using it on Windows 7, but could not get it to work. My first few messages to Nuance support had a back and forth phase, but I finally got a response to my final message over a week after I sent it (still experiencing the same problems as before). It was time for me to give up, so I got my money back under 30-day refund The support people did not seem like they were going to be of any assistance on the day of the guarantee. If you'd like to try it out, I don't discourage you from doing so. You have a 30 day refund period when you purchase directly from them directly, or perhaps from Amazon (not sure). The company does make good on the refund if the option is taken. It's quite likely that you will find the program to be very useful to Obtain a refund if you are not satisfied. In case you're purchasing from Amazon, ensure that you are covered by their 30-day money back satisfaction guarantee. It has not been my experience that any OCR program can offer a perfect reproduction of the original There is a chance you might be disappointed if that's what you are hoping for. It should be better than older versions, even if it is not perfect. *If all you need is the text extracted into a searchable document, you could use your scanner software to scan to PDF, then use a tool like PDF Exchange Viewer to do OCR to extract the text.

Selected User Reviews For Omnipage 18 Professional

WARNING! Windows 10 users are at risk! It's an awesome piece of software that I use at work! The only thing you need to be aware of if you have Windows 10 is the virus! There is no way to use this Seeing as I have a 10 system as my main computer I find this disappointing
3/5

It did work on XP and 7, but after contacting Nuance, they stated that it only works on XP and Since my other Windows system is Windows 7 Ultimate, I can convert what I need on that system and move it to my PC that runs Windows 10. I was told by Nuance that the only way to fix this compatibility issue is to upgrade to the Ultimate version, which costs That's not the case, I think!.

There's a lot of horsepower here
4/5

If you are having trouble organizing employee performance reports or assembling evidence exhibits, here's what you need to know. The well-groomed will not be deterred, but it is not for the fainthearted In order to make this puppy work effectively, you need to have a thorough understanding of Microsoft Office. Additionally, I have Adobe Acrobat Professional 10 which is an excellent tool for producing legal documents on a mass scale. While I would have liked to see a little more documentation on what cameras work best and where the photo settings go for importing documents, I think this is an excellent You will not regret spending your money on this.

A new OmniPage 18 is now available
3/5

The recommendation is for you not to proceed. The interface is Although cosmetic changes have been made to the new interface, little thought has been given to improved functionality and customization (e. g. In terms of the context of calling it a version upgrade), the new submenu and option Windows remind me of Windows PE. The scanner set-up and configuration can be found at this link I tried using the same Windows 7 certified scanner driver that worked properly with my Scanjet N6xx0 under OmniPage 17 but it would not work To test out the software, I was able to use a different driver. The following is a list of tips on improving accuracy and speed. I tested version 17 and version 18 on my system for an hour using fax, print and photocopy materials without finding any improvement in accuracy or speed. On the basis of my own home office needs, I was unable to identify any speed or accuracy benefits of version 18 over version 17. The Nuance Cloud Connector works with the following cloud services I was greeted with an unprompted pop-up for spamware as soon as I opened the Nuance Cloud Connector. A free upgrade to the full version of Nuance Cloud Connector is available. Users who choose to use Nuance Cloud Connector without the spamware version will find that it is rudimentary in features and functionality and offers few advantages over I was able to configure the utility easily, but was unable to connect to the service I wanted. In light of current economic conditions and the costs of software, there is a need for online Here's the thing License management in the cloud and the ability to transfer the necessary software between my desktop computers and laptop are important elements (i. e. It is better to buy multiple copies of software rather than buying duplicates). In its latest report, Nuance has failed to incorporate industry-specific data This is the industry standard Here's the thing You can activate or deactivate licenses on the fly, or you can click a button It is the equivalent of the line license management system. As with installation and removal, the software relies on a silent activation/deactivation procedure where the user is not prompted at all. -Program errors and technical support for the software to install and activate as expected My first experience with the program was an activation menu that is the same each time I start it. The long-winded nature of this This bug has been existing for some time in Nuance products, and it is unfortunate that Nuance has not been able to resolve it. In response to a technical support inquiry via the online form, When I sent an email to support regarding the cyclic activation bug, I received a scripted response that made no sense given the context of my question. In response to my repeated attempts to explain the problem to a customer support representative, I received the typical Nuance instructions for removing and reinstalling the software My activations were then A promise that the problem will not recur was not given to me. After ordering Nuance 30 day money back guarantee, I requested a refund but I haven't heard back from Nuance at the time of writing this review or in the past few In summary, my thoughts and recommendations are as follows My assessment of Omnipage 18 was made in comparison to its predecessor, version 17, and based on my own needs and preferences. There may be some benefit to upgrading or purchasing version 18 for users who may have similar needs. According to my personal opinion, my disappointment stems from the fact that Nuance continues to fail to offer users an industry-leading software solution In addition to implementing a standard activation scheme, it has also failed to address long-term issues Activation system is out of date and contains several bugs. My biggest disappointment with version 18 was the functionality of the new Nuance Cloud Connector, which had been the primary reason I purchased it. I was also incredibly offended by the unsolicited upgrade pop-up that I received. Offering an up-front price (i. e. This is what I saw from within the program, SPAM) If you had sent me an email, I would have appreciated it The offer will be sent to you by mail after Nuance continues to offer the absolute worst support I have ever had in the software industry in terms of technical support. In terms of me personally, I would not recommend the software, and based on my personal experience, OmniPage 18 represents a step backwards when compared to the unimpressive but dependable.

After many attempts, I gave up trying to contact technical support
3/5

A friend of mine recommended this product to me, and I bought it. In the setup wizard, it repeatedly showed me how to set up my scanner and supposedly let me save the setup after my test was successful, but when I tried to use the scanner, it didn't recognize it even though it had said that it worked. I updated an ini file, then sent the requested information in, but tech support did not reply back after a day or two. I then spent a fair amount of time editing the ini file, then sending the requested files in, but they did not reply. After a little more than a week, I got my refund for the software and gave up. I also lost my Paperport 12. Omnipage trashed my system. In addition to the first installation, I had to uninstall and reinstall this as well. The newly activated Paperport will ask me to do so almost every time I start it. However, I haven't been able to activate it automatically. The manual reactivation used to work but now does not. Omnipage 15 standard is what I've been using, and I find that it does its job very well for me, so I'll stick with that. As far as their scanner setup portion of their software is concerned, Omnipage 18 has some serious bugs left to fix.

3/5

Purchasing this product to convert a 400-word essay into a 150-word essay (There was a request for proposals) into text from a page pdf image. Even when I sent one page from the whole, it would continue to show me tildes all over. This product was also a poor facsimile of the original, but in my opinion I thought I was receiving a comparable product with this very high price. I tried MS-Office, but it wasn't up to par. The OneNote program did a poor job too, but at least it gave me some text and some garbage. The instructions I was looking for were not available I couldn't find a relevant link to that had any detailed information, nor any youtube video that someone In addition to my sample one, I posted the issue A page was sent to the Support site, but it did not receive any response. I received no acknowledgment of the issue from the Support site, even though I had a ticket number. Summary A poor document, poor support, and high price are all signs that a product is insufficient and needs to be replaced Prices are reasonable. The product I ended up using took three days of search and research on another vendor's behalf The unreadable text was converted to the original by removing and replacing the characters.

This is junk software, do not purchase it! They sold us this software for $550 because they said it would make our schematics searchable and we paid them for this promise
3/5

The short answer is no, it doesn't, and it cannot. It's a simple case of the software not working. This is unimaginable. The price is ridiculous.
After I spent weeks trying to make this program work, I finally gave up and switched to their poor product support. It is difficult to follow the software flow, and it is There are so many steps to simple tasks that it is difficult to do them. There is no point of checking out PDF Converter Professional, because that too cannot make an indexed PDF from a schematic. As soon as it attempts to convert the document, it displays "Cannot convert".
