- Omnipage Pro is better than Omnipage. We had a setup with 2 HP
- Scanjets, one on a Mac IIci and one on a Zenith 486DX25. The Ze-
- nith had Omnipage Pro and the Mac Omnipage. The main difference
- was that the Pro was trainable. In sheer speed the Zenith was
- about 4x faster than the Mac. The Mac users preferred using the
- Zenith and using Netware (with Mac NLM) to move files.
