- Faxworks for OS/2 (at $99 if you mention the OS/2 Coupon Book;
- direct from SofNet at 800-4FAXWORKS, I believe) is a great
- application. I use it, and I like it. No OCR (yet).
-
- There are some others, however. Please see the OS/2 applications list
- (available via anonymous ftp from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu, filename
- /pub/uploads/novappsl.txt, although it will be moved).
