You can't remove pictures or draw boxes. 
I also don't proof within the program so don't know if it works or not.
These problems don't make the software unusable though.

You still haven't answered the original question: If someone that is sighted
can't access any of the basic functions without using a mouse, how can you
do it? Main points of interest are:
 
1. How do you spellcheck without a mouse?
2. How do you fix errors before rendering to the OCR engine?
3. How do you remove images without using a mouse?
4. How do you exclude text areas from the OCR process without a mouse?
Mainly, how you draw boxes around text blocks?
 
I'm sure there are more questions someone would want answers to, but this is
a good start anyways. Detailed directions on each point would be a good
idea.

I really haven't found that to be an issue. I typically scan in the program
and edit in Word. I have done a lot of college type books with graphs and
tables in them. They work well.

Too often pictures get recognized as text and it's tedious to remove stray
characters. I don't find Omnipage ignores them. They either process them as
text or a graphic and either way I have to fix it later. It's faster to fix
it first. Unless you have some hints you would like to share? I would love
to know.
 
Others who use Omnipage or are thinking about it may want to know too.
