No going back the the computer each time. I've got about an hour into my project and have managed 105 pages all proofed and checked (I've been proofing and checking a chapter at a time).

The Microtek uses ABBYY Finereader for OCR and I've found it about 98% accurate which helps too.

No such luck. This is an HP all-in-one printer/scanner/copier/fax deal. The only buttons I have are the numerals to dial with and the main scan/copy/fax buttons. I need a better set up.
