[blindLaw] ABYY FineReader Stability with Jaws?

[Amar Jain]

Kelby-bulk processing for conversion? Or any other way you were referring too? There are other ways of course to make textable pdfs but I can play with it tomorrow and let the group know.

Would appreciate your insites.

Regards,
Amar Jain
