The Kurzweil 3000 program is also compatible with Dragon.

It has fantastic scanning capability that has very low error rates, is fast, and you could save the file as text to import into Microsoft Word (if you like) and write in there.

You could, instead, scan it into Kurzweil and then use Dragon to write on the page in the "text" note feature.

We also use textHELP Read and Write to proofread - it has a great homonym checker as well as auditory spell checker.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any other questions!

I have a patron who needs to be able to scan worksheets into a program such
as OpenBook, then be able to answer the worksheets with a voice recognition
program.  Can you use Dragon to dictate with a scanning program?  This same
patron is still without textbooks.  What would be the fastest way to make
textbooks available to the student?  The student is dyslexic and needs to be
able to hear and see the text.
