Fujitsu ScanSnap for Mac

Submitted by Mishaal on February 9, 2006 - 11:26am.

I have just seen the Fujitsu ScanSnap and it sounds perfect. I'd like to scan and label all my paper documents then destroy the originals and be completly paperless. As I can't be the only one who has had this thought I would greatly appreciate your own experiences and opinions.

Editable PDFs?

Hello. Love this site and wanted to say that you guys have certainly fed my lust for the ScanSpan with my fantasies of a paper-less office.

Forgive me for my ignorance, but how exactly do the PDFs/OCR process work? If the OCR isn’t 100%, is it possible to manually correct the text in the document and still maintain the integrity with the background image/formatting, etc.? Also, as an acupuncturist, I have lots of docs of text with Chinese Pinyin, so I’m afraid that won’t transfer well.

Thanks much! -Showing
