  • Makes a few errors

    This app seems to struggle somewhat with uppercase English text. When extracting text from a TIFF I noticed it tends to misread D or Q as "O", and VV as "W" or even "WV". Very occasionally gives "L" in place of I. If accuracy is important for your project be sure to give it a good proofreading before proceeding.

    Still, it's frequently able to find text where Adobe Acrobat would fall flat on its face, so 3 stars for that.

  • so you basically couldn't program a way to close the installation window?

    1- it's not free
    2- you made it impossible to close the installation window without restarting the machine.

    worst app I've ever downloaded

    Developer Response

    You are incorrect. 1- it is free to use for as long as you want, but it limits the length of the detection. 2- I did program a way to close the installer window. Just press Command-Q like any other app. You can also just start the free trial in the last screen, which does not require any sign up (and again, is free, no subscription to sign up for, etc.).
  • Flawless and SO EASY

    My hat off to the delelpor. This is so easy to use and saved me WAY more in the first use than what it cost. Now I can get a good nights sleep instead of dreaming about stupid numbers and letters!
