After much experimentation it seems the Best option with freeOCR on windows, with French Langauge selected, Gets most the text right, minus the odd Capital M and ú at the beginning and end of texts. Couldnt find anything useful and free for Mac. Author Posts Viewing 3 posts - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic. Log In Username: Password: Keep me signed in Log In
