Anyone Using OmniPage and PaperPort? Just when I thought I was weened of of most Scansoft/Nuance programs, they sent me one of those "too good to pass up" upgrade offers. I had previously used their PDF Converter Pro 3 and had a real love/hate relationship with it. When it works, it is pretty amazing. However it has a way of throwing errors of the "Must Terminate" variety and usually does that just when you really do not have the time to deal with it. I also use Dragon Naturally Speaking 9 Professional and get by with it even though they tend not to support any of their products, except for enterprise versions, and then only with a paid support plan. But a couple of weeks ago I received a promotion offer from Nuance that may be too good to ignore: OmniPage 16 Professional, with PaperPort 11, PDF Create 4, and a throw-in called MediaRecover. The whole package will cost me $99.99. I checked Nuance's web site and the full prices for each are OmniPage 16 Pro: $499.99; PaperPort (but not the Pro version): $99.99; PDF Create 4: $49.99; and MediaRecover, which I never heard of before: $29.99. They total $679.96. All for $99.99. Unbelievable price. But are the programs worthwhile? If not, then even at that price, why bother? The product pages read great, but of course that's Nuance tooting their own horn. PC Magazine wrote them up pretty good, but I would prefer to hear from someone who has used these applications. Thanks, Jim
