In Re: Charles Faulhaber's request for sources of TeX:
Personal TeX, In.
12 Madrona Ave.
Mill Valley, CA 94941
(415)-388-8853
ArborText Inc.
535 West William St.
Suite 300
Ann Arbor, MI 48103
(313)-996-3566
There are probably other sources, but these are the ones I know.
I've tried both and like the Personal TeX version best--it's easier
to install and seems to require less memory. I'm not a TeX pro,
though, so pay attention to what more experienced users have to say.

Have any colleagues used the Xerox Datacopy GS Plus, the 730GS or any
Siemens scanners? Opinions?
As for software, we're thinking of OCR Plus for MS-DOS-based PC's and
which comes with 19 pre-programmed typefaces and is also trainable. Has
anyone tried AccuText (Mac-based OCR software) and Xerox' MacImage and
PCImage desktop publishing software for image processing?
