Yes, it's streets ahead of those OCR softwares that come bundled with the $100 scanner. But note that even if the scanning is 99.9% correct, that still leaves a whole lot of proof-reading to be done. Happily the errors tend to fall into a pattern, so you can search for them. I once scanned a backlist book about skiing, in which the term
ski bum probably appeared a hundred times. Finereader mistook M for RN, so I would up with a hundred occasions of SKI BURN.
There were other mistooks, too, which could only be found by a Closereader.
