Substitute for Kodak Imaging?
Posted by troppo19@takeout.hotmail.com on July 2nd, 2004


Anyone found one which will work in WinXP?
Looking for -
Fax Group 4, multipage capability, import from TWAIN device,
zoom capabilities, basic editing eg straighten (rotate by 1 degree or so),
despeckle, sharpen ...
I know earlier Win9x/ME/2k versions can be installed with a bit of work, but
that's not acceptable in this situation, and XP's view fax is no good ...
TIA

40 pages or more ..
The task involves dropping a whole pile of documents and drawings into a
sheet-feed scanner. Without a program like Kodak Imaging the job is going to
take years. Guess we might have to buy a copy from Eastman :-(

I haven't found a good freeware "page manager" type program yet. I posted
an inquiry here, got no reply.

One of my scanners (Fujitsu) came with its own scanner utility - quite good
for handling and managing multipage TIFFs. Otherwise I think the only game
left in town is

Scansoft Paperport.

Xnview certainly handles multipage TIFs ok - didn't blink at 67 pages (we
usually only do 40 at the most - capacity of the sheet feeder).
Bit limited on filtering, but it will straighten by 1 degree, remove noise,
and is 8bf compatible.
This is an office situation, so I guess we'll need to register it. AUD100 more
or less for two copies + staff learning curve, or AUD500 for the Eastman
product and no learning curve (sigh).
