[Athen] Abbyy FineReader v9?

[normajean.brand]

Thank you for your responses! I knew I had seen/read something on
Abbyy's newest version but for some reason had the versions mixed up,
and couldn't remember the exact conversations. I think I will stick with
v8 even it sometimes gives me a headache although I suspect some of the
problems lie with the scanning station setup we have. Thanks a lot!

I think it was on the DSSHE list but what we are seeing is files sizes
with Abbyy 9 being about 10 times larger than with Abbyy 8.

There was an extended conversation about Abbyy Fine Reader version 9 on
this or another mailing list recently. The problem with Abbyy Version 9
is the size of the files produced in the scanning process. The general
consensus is that it is safest to stay with version 8 for the time being
especially when scanning textbooks and other large items.

Has anyone tried out the new FineReader? I know there were discussions,
pros and cons on FineReader 8.0 and technical issues with regards to 8.0
for some folks. Just curious...
