- Sounds great! A number of people want to see OCR in GPFax, but we feel that
- if there is software that can probably do a MUCH better job than we can, then
- you'd be better off using it - it would take us quite a while to develop
- the software ourselves and more time to improve it.

- have a need for some yet!
