I am just wondering what people are using, or even if you are using, a translation program?

I have some scans of pages from a bygdebok, and I would like to use my Readiris 12 to recognize the characters, and then run through a translation program.

I know translation programs are not real accurate, but at least I can get an idea of what is printed and then figure it out from there. I have had success doing that in my Swedish research, and would like to do the same with Norwegian.

Thanks in advance.

My apologies.

Well, I am going to break the "rules" too, I found this awhile back and really like it, don't know if it has already been mentioned.
