Dave,

A few questions:

  - What is the application?
  - What "read rate" is acceptable ... do you need 100% accuracy?
  - Why are you considering OCR over bar codes?

We have never had the success with OCR that we have had with bar code
recognition.

or tips
that anyone experienced with OCR can pass along.

Any gotchas?  Any special printer requirements?  Any package to recommend?
TIA,
