I've explained my somewhat convoluted scanning and proofing process on several occasions elsewhere in the forum. I ultimately use WordPerfect for my editing (even though I also have Word installed on my PC). As my preferred ebook format is Mobipocket, I use Finereader to give me a txt image which I convert to WordPerfect for editing, then convert the edited product back to txt. I then convert the txt to html using the txt2html application. With the html I use calibre to convert to Mobipocket. Wow! However, I believe you can use Finereader (both v 6 and 10) to go directly to word processing software other than Word. The v10 enables me to set the time between automatic scans to different durations in seconds, so you can concentrate only(!) on turning pages. (v 6 may also have this; I never looked.)
