<p class=MsoNormal>Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have been playing around with the newest version of InftyReader
2.8.1. with an Algebra II textbook. It did a very nice job of recognizing
the symbology in the 254 page 600DPI pdf and the raw text recognition
looks pretty good as well. I saved it out as a Word2007 document and
it also appears that the MathML is fairly well formed. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Unfortunately the structural recognition leaves still leaves
a lot be to be desired, most of the font sizing and page justifications are
lost as well as the original pagination. So the new Toshiba OCR engine
they have included seems to have improved the text recognition but did not
retain any differentiation in font sizing or layout as Omnipage or Abbyy Fine
Reader would have. My guess is that it will take several hours to restore
the page structure and then I will start looking at the <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am attempting to create this as a DAISY 3 book so we shall
see how long it takes to restyle the whole thing and create a finished
product. I would appreciate any feedback others may have as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
