If still having issues do an uninstall / install. ABBYY FinePrint Reader Pro’s main window consists of a column in which you see thumbnails of scanned documents, then two panes for larger previews of the current page and its OCR’d or in ABBYY. If, after uninstall, there are issues with Acrobat X then do a "repair". ('work-arounds' fail as the OS gets updated). | It is not a Windows 7 compatible application Two good reasons to uninstall FineReader 9.0 Sprint. Note that ABBYY FineReader 10.0 Sprint is good to go in Windows 7. The system requirements *do not* include Windows 7. Given that combination I'd say that a depreciated "freebie" (ABBYY FineReader 9.0 Sprint) got put on the Windows 7 box.ĪBBYY's site identifies the application as a "light" version of the Professional release that is bundled with some scanner models.
