Re: Electronic Scanning of documents

["Paul Robinson" <ukcueman@xxxxxxx>]

Yes. I'm not sure I'd use the auto document feeder for that though because
it pushes the stuff over a roller that bends it on the way to get scanned.
But you can use it like a flatbed scanner as well if you want. I forget
what
the maximum resolution is, but it's high and IMHO good enough for family
pics.

I use the epson perfection 1640SU.

Great for piling a load of A4 (or slightly bigger) sheets onto it and
scanning lots in one go. I think it's very fast, but then I've only had an
old flatbed scanner to compare it to and that was pathetically slow.

Can't find any scanners really with auto-sheet feeders most of them have
a auto photo feeder but that's about it.

Any ideas?

We use an HP Officejet with Document Feeder, and it was pretty poor in
everything we tried... right up until we got a copy of ABBYY Finereader.

That software is the absolute Mutt's nuts, does amazingly good OCR, and
is
*lightning* fast.

Highly Recommended

Ian.
