CAERE CORPORATION AND VISIONEER ANNOUNCE LINK BETWEEN OMNIPAGE PRO 6.0 FOR
MACINTOSH AND PAPERPORT VX FOR MACINTOSH

Los Gatos, Calif., January 8, 1996 Caere Corporation (NASDAQ:CAER), the
worldwide leader in optical character recognition (OCR) products, and
Visioneer, Inc., a leading provider of paper input systems, today
announced that the new OmniPage Pro 6.0 for Macintosh OCR software
includes a link to Visioneer's PaperPort Vx for Macintosh, providing
seamless integration of the two products. Adding an icon to the PaperPort
Vx desktop, OmniPage Pro 6.0 enables users to take advantage of the robust
OCR feature set of the Caere product. Users can simply scan documents with
the PaperPort Vx and drag them onto the `OmniPage Pro Icon' to easily and
accurately convert the scans into editable text for use with word
processors and other text-based applications.

"In today's market, users demand integrated solutions that streamline
processes," said Chad Kinzelberg, Caere's vice president of marketing.
"OmniPage Pro 6.0's links to the PaperPort Vx eliminate the need to switch
between applications and increases productivity."

PaperPort Vx is a hardware/software system that makes it easy to get paper
into a computer where it can be faxed, filed, copied, edited, or
integrated into more than one hundred popular software applications.

OmniPage Pro 6.0 is Caere's leading OCR product and converts scanned or
faxed documents into computer editable text, eliminating the need to
retype information. OmniPage Pro 6.0 provides extended features beyond the
basic OCR capabilities of Caere's OmniPage Lite that is bundled with the
PaperPort Vx.

PaperPort customers (and other scanner owners that have any version of
Caere OCR) can upgrade to OmniPage Pro 6.0 for Macintosh at retail
resellers or through major mail-order catalogs for $149 (estimated street
price).This upgrade pricing represents a $350 reduction in the cost of
OmniPage Pro. OmniPage Pro 6.0 provides extended capabilities over the OEM
version including:

* Caere's newest OCR engine for increased accuracy;
* AutoOCR Toolbar that performs all the key steps of the OCR process
automatically with a single mouse click;
* Text proofing for faster job completion;
* True Page technology that maintains the original format of
  the page including text and graphics to reduce the number of
  editing steps;
* Deferred/batch processing to delay recognition to a more convenient
  time;
* Advanced OCR settings panel for greater precision and accuracy;
  and others.
