Once the text is scanned into computer can you do word searches from that text?

Yes, the "pen" will place the scanned text at the cursor location. The text is then part of the file into which it was inserted.

If you name the scanned object you will be able to locate that item within a file.

Not as you might think. When you scan, you need to have your scanner software read the information (it would likely have to be printed by a machine, not by a person) and convert it to text. Then, you'd need to make sure it didn't make a mistake in the scan and change a number or a word. After correcting that, you could then cut/paste the text as a recipe.So, it isn't really designed to scan and save recipes. I've never done that or tried at all. I've just keyed in the recipe I wanted to enter, if it was on paper and couldn't be found on some website where it would be more easily pulled in. Not as you might think.

You can do both if you want. There is a way to separate Fter you have scanned. I just scan those that are part of one document as I find it easier for me. It really is a nice machine.

no you can not scan a page from a book it does not allow you to do that. only if the page out of the book as a single page

Yes and no. It isn't a true document scanner so you are manually scanning each and every page. The main point of interest is the optical character application (Adobe's ABBYY FineReader Version 9). This converts scanned text to either PDF or Word format. It's not a bad program for pamphlets and pure text documents. However I was hoping to scan a workshop manual for my car - that was a Fail for reasons that have more to do with Word than with FineReader. In short I am now looking for document scanning software because nothing included with the scanner was up to the task I was attempting.

Yes. It comes with a computer program and you can easily enter text like you would in a microsoft word or works program

Yes, in a couple ways. If you buy a new Mac, then you get Apple's word processor Pages free. You can open Word docs in this and export Pages docs to Word docs, though there are sometimes formatting issues with that. You can also just buy Word for Mac, which is 100% compatible with the PC counterpart

It could be done, but there are far better scanners for scanning books. It's great for small things like business cards or a small image on a page, but not whole pages. As l said it could be done, but you would go insane.

No. It has a word processing program, but it is not Word, and cannot be easily converted to .doc or .docx.

You can scan individual pages and collate into (1) PDF file. Insofar as moving on surface you're probably thinking of a hand held scanner that you move over document.

Yes. The only drawback to this is that if you have it scan to PDF, it doesn't make it text-searchable. You can manually do that though. We use it to scan to network folders for each user.

Looking up lexicons it reads wordbook or dictionary, of Greek, Latin, or Hebrew. The answer to your question is no.

No and Yes!!! Automatically out of the box...no. It can read them and edit very little straight out of the box. HOWEVER, a free program from the Mobil Market called Kingsoft Office is fantastic. It opens Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files and it will also create those. Now, the formatting is not as extensive as full blown office...but it is great otherwise. I had about 20 minutes before church got started last night and I had an idea of a subject I wanted to teach on in the up coming weeks...I pulled out my tablet and started a new Word document and started typing an outline. I do suggest purchasing the "SANOXY Keyboard Case with Stylus Pen for 10inch Superpad/Flytouch Android Tablet PC" from Amazon...it is WELL worth the money. It gives you the ability to plug in an actual keyboard to use when you want to work primarily in Word and Excel!!

Unfortunately the answer is "no". The program only recognizes scans as pictures and not characters.

You can store and save codes in the scanners memory and then print after connecting to a PC. You cannot print directly from the scanner.

You have to scan through a computer, but you can save to a flash drive. The scanner requires a computer (at least as far as I have figured out).
