Convert pictures of text into selectable characters using this lightweight, free and open-source utility powered by OCR technology #OCR scanner #Character recognition #Text extractor #OCR #Text #Extractor
When writing essays based on scanned PDF files or receiving debugging errors through notifications, being able to quickly copy the text inside screenshots or pictures can drastically improve your workflow. For that purpose, applications such as Image Scan OCR can save you time and energy thanks to its blazing fast optical character recognition technology and straightforward user interface.
The application boasts a three-pane layout with resizable sections, having a navigation folder view on the left side, the image meant to be scanned in the center and the resulting text on the right. This speeds up the process of using the program, since the most important functions are listed in a top horizontal toolbar, to let users avoid having to browse multiple layers of menus to get to their desired features.
Once a folder is loaded, its image files can be clicked on and their text is extracted instantly so that the user does not have to interrupt their workflow while waiting for the recognition process. What is more, the resulting text can also be edited inside the app window in order to make adjustments on the fly without having to rely on an external text processor.
For scanned documents with multiple pages, the application can handle PDF files of any size, making it a must-have for office workers. If the user wants to preserve the scanned results for later, saving in plain text format can be easily done for archiving purposes.
Photos received from friends or coworkers can sometimes have a different orientation or format. As such, instead of editing the pictures in an image editor, rotating them can be done inside the program. Finally, text can be quickly copied in its entirety or wrapped to avoid further formatting when pasting into a word processor.
For those making articles or tutorials for various programs whose menus contain non-selectable text, or for those who deal with scanned PDF files daily, Image Scan OCR can be a great addition to your suite of office apps, thanks to its speed and straightforwardness.
