FineReader PDF para Mac

The Mac version of FineReader PDF is de facto discontinued. There has been no update for almost two years now. With the last update ABBYY made the app even worse. Features like Deskew Text alter the contrast in an odd way and make the output unusable. Besides that, that app crashes constantly. Nevertheless ABBYY has the audacity to charge 69 € a year for a non-working app with no updates and no customer support at all. Support demands vast amounts of test material, detailed error descriptions, etc., even though they know they won't fix the error anyway. It's been like this for the last two years.

Spell check is greyed out even after OCR. Expensiv and at the end you can use only half of it.

The Mac app is ok. The OCR engine behind the scenes is very good. ABBY licenses out their OCR technology to third parties such as Fujitsu (ScanSnap) and DevonTechnologies. I suspect that's their main focus rather than direct consumer sales. The Mac app still cannot process pdf documents in batch, which Adobe Acrobat has long done. Shame.

ABBY FineReader for Mac is on v15. Not v12.

Unfortunately, the Mac version has been abandoned for many years...
