Does anyone hae any experience with abbyy Fotoreader as opposed with Finereader?
It would seem much better suited to our needs, at least in theory...

Re: fotoreader
It isn't sold in the U.S., only in western Europe. Claims to do a better job with curved lines of text and other distortions caused by using a camera instead of a scanner (presumably keystoning etc.). It probably does, but with the setup I'm using to photograph the pages, and the fact that I prefer to keep the original images for reading, using ABBYY only to augment my reading with searchability, I haven't found these image distortion issues to be a problem.
I assume this will be available in the states eventually, so please give it a try and let us know what to expect.
