spacing.

In Fig.

2, the line spac-

ing

better, but

have a few

serious

typos and "garbage"

when

handling

the empty

lines. Figure

was

the best

could

do using several

scanning techniques, as

well

as a

"POOR" reading mode built into

the device. We've got

the spacing rea-

sonably

good -only two extraneous

dashes -but a

handful of typos.

Using

Oberon's own

printed illus-

trations, as shown

in Fig. 4,

the best

"reads" were

obtained

from

Courier

10. The 12 -pitch fonts produced the

most

errors.

Although Oberon specifies only

four fonts,

couldn't

resist

trying

other typefaces. As shown in Fig. 5,

Oberon

knows of

what

they speak be-

cause

the

copy

from Prestige Pica,

Delegate,

and

Artisan fonts are al-

most incoherent.

Conclusions

The real problem with

Omni

-Reader

isn't

the

few

typos

generates -they

can be easily corrected

from

the

key-

board;

rather, it is its

operating

speed,

which

is not just slow, but

l -o

-w.

For

example, a

not -so-

experienced

typist

entered

25 lines

(one

standard business page)

of "al-

most

perfect" copy

into

word

pro-

cessor before the Omni

- Reader

could

enter 10 lines, and the reader

pro-

duced

errors than the typist.

Of course, the relative

value

anything

is how much it

costs

for

what it

does.

Omni

-Reader pack-

age

consisting of optical

character

reader, RS232

connector cable, soft-

ware

for the

IMB PC

Apple Mac

Intosh, and a training certificate

valid

for on -site user training is pric-

ed at

$799. If

few

correctable

typos

are acceptable

for that particular ap-

plication, then $799 is certainly a

budget

price in today's marketplace.

Nonetheless,

it is

still a

handsome in-

vestment

for a process that

has its

present shortcomings, though

the

technology,

its

promise

and its

rela-

tively

modest price are appealing AE
