Hi!

 I am looking for a flatbed scanner that provides graphics editing and OCR 
software and that will work on a SUN4 machine.
This is to be a dual purpose machine: 1) scan in and edit graphics/images/etc.,
2) scan in text from books/letters/etc..
 
Ideally it would not be terribly expensive, easy to use, and will be color.
While color is not necessary, it would REALLY be nice.

The reason we want a flatbed scanner is that we want to be able to scan from
manuals, as well as from 3D sources (like a cube or something)....

Please email to zwbm07@hou.amoco.com and I will post a summary.  

Thanks...
