In 1977 OCR technoloyg could BARELY do proportional font scanning. I know, I was writing hand-crafted PDP-8 assembler to do it. OCR would not convert a document to proportional fonts.

All this is just hilariously desperate. They are such public school victims they don't even know the history of technology in their own lifespans.

Wow. I am speechless.
