Hi,

I have got a label which has got bar codes and text informations I
can read the bar codes thru bar code scanner. But I want to read the
text informations in the label too. Can any one suggest not so costly
method of doing this. I know we can use image scanners.

Any crazy ideas ..pls share.

I am trying to implement a label verification equipment.

My Canon flatbed scanner came with text reading software.
I guess you could parse the generated tiff for barcodes too.
Bit slow though.
And only works for flat labels.
