FineReader only recognized the scanner when I connected the scanner to my Mac with a USB cable. Unlike our editor's choice FineReader Express, Prizmo connected to the scanner in my HP all-in-one printer even when my Mac was running wirelessly.
And, of course, like traditional OCR software, it can take images directly from a scanner, using OS X's built-in scanner interface. Prizmo includes an optional menubar icon that lets you select a block of text anywhere on screen-including images-and perform OCR on it, with the resulting text copied the clipboard for pasting into any application. If you connect any other camera to your Mac, it lets you browse through the photos in the camera's internal storage and select one or more pictures that you want to process with OCR. If you connect an iPhone or iPad to your Mac by a USB cable, you can snap a picture and Prizmo will instantly capture it and try to extract text from it. What makes Prizmo for OS X different is that it's designed from the start to work with cameras as well as scanners. Prizmo comes in two versions, one for OS X, which is the one I tested, and another for the iPhone ( at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) and iPad, which I didn't test but which has the same basic capabilities. Prizmo is OCR reinvented for the mobile era, and, like many reinventions, it's a mixture of brilliant new ideas and details that aren't fully worked out yet. Slightly overcomplex and underdocumented workflow.
