Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of DigiMemo Handwriting Recognition Software

Customer Review: Handwriting Recognition Software for ACECAD DigiMemo
Summary: 4 Stars

I didn't have high expectations for this program but I was pleasantly surprised. Even though my handwriting was sloppy and often ran uphill, the software recognized the overwhelming majority of words. I could easily correct those it didn't. It also seemed to learn words that were unfamiliar to it such as "ePortfolio". After I corrected that word twice it recognized it in subsequent pages. It has a setting for object recognition as well. For the price, I was glad I bought it.

Customer Review: Very good at the one thing it does
Summary: 4 Stars

It's not as good as the Windows tablet native recognition, that's clear to me. But it has multilanguage support right out of the box. It also increases the DigiMemo's value tremendously.

Do note that it's not so precise figuring out my cursive handwriting but you should get better results if you write clearly. My handwriting is not as bad as a doctor's but I'm certainly no model of caligraphy.

Customer Review: Better than expected but still a little slow.
Summary: 4 Stars

This software does what it says. It is a bit slow on my old PC. Maybe it is because I installed it on my old PC. It handles writing very well. It handles some pictures very well but not if it is too close to the writing. The training is slow also but it has to be done. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating is the speed.

Customer Review: Just semi-OK
Summary: 3 Stars

I use my Acecad virtually every day for note-taking, and love the ability to store a digital image of
my notes, but the OCR leaves a lot to be desired. As a result, I don't use the OCR as much as I had intended.

Actually, it may not be entirely the fault of the software.. A lot of the problem is that people don't always
take the time to write exactly the way that they did when training it, get in a hurry, get a little
sloppy in forming letters. The program reads your writing and makes its best guess at what you wrote, but I
have no idea where it gets some of the words that it uses. I use a lot of technical terms, and would love to be able to
add some type of custom word list of my own to its program, but so far I have not found how to do that, so I don't use the OCR much.
If there was a way to correct the words and have the software remember and learn from the corrections, this would be a much better
product.

Customer Review: not very accurate
Summary: 2 Stars

I ordered this to use for work and as instructed spent time training the software to recognize my writing. When I tested on some randome notes I took while reading a book, it managed about 75% accuracy. Not great but someting I could live with. At my first meeting, I took six pages of notes, some with charts and graphs, none of these complicated. When I plugged it in at home I found two pages were completely missing and the charts were unreadable. For instance a triangle with printed text on each corner came back as a long word with a number 11 in the middle. Took me a minute to realize the 11 represented the sides of the triangle, not good considering the triangle took up 5 lines on the paper.

The pen works as advertised. The software to turn it into editable text works as long as you don't mind really heavy editing. I decided taking notes on a laptop was much easier and returned the pen, pad, and software for a full refund. At least that was easy. Thank you Amazon!
