SimpleOCR

SimpleOCR is a lightweight, super handy application that helps you skip the boring task of retyping printed documents, especially if you can't find a digital version of what you need. It’s like having a smart assistant for your papers!

What is Optical Character Recognition?

This tool uses optical character recognition (OCR), which is just a fancy way of saying it turns handwritten or typed text into digital text. It's pretty cool, right?

User-Friendly Features

SimpleOCR comes packed with features designed to make this process as easy as pie! For starters, it has TWAIN scanning. This lets you scan your documents directly in the SimpleOCR app. No more wasting time moving files around! You can even pick specific areas to scan and edit them easily.

Text Recognition and Editing

If your document has bold, italic, or underlined text, don't worry! SimpleOCR instantly recognizes those styles and applies them back. It makes sure that the final product looks just like the original printed document.

Dictionaries for Better Accuracy

A neat thing about SimpleOCR is that it uses three well-known dictionaries in English, French, and Dutch—over 120,000 words! This means it can really understand the text better and give you more accurate results.

No More Messy Scans!

The software also has a despeckle tool that removes any noise from blurry images. This helps make everything clearer and improves the final outcome of your work.

A Time-Saver You’ll Love
