- I had tried to post this a couple days ago but somehow the body
- of the text didn't show up, only my .sig got through.

- The following is an answer I received when I asked about the Inwords up
- date. I had asked about it a year earlier in June ;91 and received
- basically the same answer.

- The InWords v1.1 update is now in final beta testing. We are unable to
- give a specific release date because of the unpredictability of the
- testing process. If no problems are discovered, then the update will be
- available very soon. However, if a difficult bug is found, it could
- delay the update several weeks.
-
- We appreciate your patience while we ensure the quality of the update.
- All registered users will receive notification by mail when it is
- released.
-
- We have found that the vast majority of InWords users do not have any
- significant problems using the current version, but this is highly
- dependent on the type of material being scanned, as with any OCR process.
-
- If you have a problem with the current version that they can't work
- around, please give us a call, we can probably help.
