As noted in my first post this is a cheapo-cheapo method. Therefore all of the software used was provided by HP on the install CD.

Although I have other (they say more advanced) OCR programs like TextBridge, the results do not change that much when using good originals. Higher resolutions and better OCR programs would be critical if the base language was for example Russian. Since English has a fairly simple character set it is easier than many to OCR. If exotic designer fonts are used then the better quality programs are a must. For common everyday typeset books, the supplied software is quite fine.
