Ratings and Reviews
LiveScan goes where live text stops.
LiveScan does some things that are really fantastic. First, if you want to copy-past some text from an e-reader the normal copy-paste adds lots of garbage, if you can get the text at all. With LiveScan this problem is completely solved. Second, if your text is in a vertical portion of a larger text with LiveScan you can select just the portion you need, whereas the built-in text selector will take all the surrounding text. Really an immense advantage over the standard text-lifting.
Goes on where copy leaves off
many times when you want to copy some text all sorts of garbage comes along. not with livescan though. it copies exactly what you select. highly recommended.
