PDF editing of character styles: highlightĪttach a variety of file formats to your PDFsĬonvert and export to Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) PDF editing of character styles: strikethrough Buy it at your peril until they sort it out.PDF editing of character styles: underline Without this it is very annoying and much more of a hassle than it should be. Get these issues sorted out and the app will be very decent and fairly reasonably priced. There is a preference to not have this checked but it doesn't seem to work. There doesn't seem to be any way of controlling this behaviour either.Īnother minor inconvenience is that when you import you have to uncheck the Page Analysis checkbox in the import dialog every time unless you want ReadIRIS to create multiple frames on every page which always seem to be bad guesses. This is an incredible nuisance if you are trying to recreate a multi-page document - you have to go through and copy the text out of the farme on every page and paste it into a new document before you end up with one long document. docx format, every page is contained within a text frame. Secondly, although it outputs into MS Word. If I break the job down into sections of four or five pages then the job often completes before crashing but this is really pretty poor - don't they ever test this app? The underlying OCR engine seems generally excellent, and the UI this time is ALMOST decent.įirst it crashes all the time, particularly with longer files - not very long, you understand, but when trying to scan a simple text-only document of 15 pages it crashes EVERY time when it gets to the 'formatting' stage. SO frustrating! I have just bought the new v14 (up to 14.0.3 already - MacUpdate please catch up!) and it is the same mess that it always was. The program does have a lot of features and such so I have to give it to them, and it does work pretty well at character recognition. I own Prizmo but have not tried its OCR yet. Meanwhile ABBY does just about everything ReadIRIS does, only faster and more accurately. The rest of the time it's hard to convince them. Seems the only time they realize you're a customer is when they want to sell something. Releases are expensive through the company but they constantly spam you with 'great deals!' and 'last chance!' (especially for their associated pen reader) - a lot like owning Toast, in that regard.

12.04 to 12.05, you have to call them up, deal with the usual nonsense, and beg, plead, and demand until they send you the release, which really should be going to all customers automatically. If you are having problems and need a point update, e.g. Bugs continue unabated and usability is never improved. Updates are very expensive and in my experience, very little changes from version to version. I got this when it was just about the only game in town. The UI is a bit Windows like, but that does not worry me.

I think the software does what it claims to do. I had no problems installing, activating and registering version 17 in High Sierra 10.13.4. I did have trouble activating version 15 a few years ago, but I got a prompt response from the support site and had no further problems. This necessitated leaving MacUpdate and going into the IRIS website.

I was able to upgrade from my version 16 software for $69. You can also save documents in a multi-page format, which is handy for pdf. There are more export options available too. The ability to save the file as pdf, doc or xls is great. I have found the OCR engine quite accurate. Then I tried Readiris, which was ported across from Windows I think. ViewScan has rudimentary OCR and did the trick for a while. There is a dearth of OCR software for the mac and when my previous software (OmniPage I think) stopped being supported I had to look elsewhere. I have not had the problems reported below.
