Text Reader Developer NoteFrench localization fixed - Version: 1.2, 10/18/2003 01:17PM PST

In 1.2 you can remove the French localization from the Finder by selecting Text Reader and showing the Info window. Under Languages, remove French. The program will now work. I just posted 1.2.1 to fix this for new downloads.

Krioni,

You can take a look at an open-source freeware AppleScript I wrote that offers batch processing as well as metadata encoding. For more information, see
