Don and all,

Using JAWS 2018 latest build, I just gave my Pearl camera a trial run. Quite impressive, and yes it may signal the end of any future Openbook support. That is somewhat unfortunate, as Openbook has a very rich set of features in settings and configurations. I'll keep my Openbook 8 and 9 copies for as long as they run on Windows. However that aside, OCR using the Pearl camera or a connected flatbed does offer a very convenient way to scan physical document on demand without needing Openbook. Also note that it is now possible to recognize many document types right from the file listing in Windows Explorer, which to me, is a much more significant improvement in the Convenient OCR application. But again, I don't see anywhere that the Pearl camera can be used with other mainstream applications as an input device. Therein lies my continuing criticism.

I see it that FS has incorporated part of Open Book into Jaws 2018 and Open Book is on its way out. Of course Open Book hasn't been updated for years. On 12/8/2017 8:19 AM, Dave... wrote: John,
