Not everyone can print quickly and transfer text from paper to a computer in a short time. However, for a variety of purposes, people often need to transfer printed text to a computer - and for this, sources with text are scanned, after which they can be used electronically in a graphical image format. This format has a number of disadvantages - you have to recognize letters in the image, which are not always clear and distinct. In addition, the scanned text cannot be copied - if you want to copy any passage, you will have to retype it manually.
Instructions
Step 1
There are a number of ways that you can quickly convert the scanned image to text format and simplify the process of text recognition. There is a special program for recognizing scanned text - ABYY Finereader.
Step 2
With this program, you can easily convert any graphic and PDF formats into text files, which in turn can be easily printed with minimal waste of ink or toner in the printer. ABYY Finereader is capable of recognizing texts printed in almost any font of any size; in some cases, when part of the text remains unrecognized, you can retype individual letters, focusing on the scanned document. Every PC user will be able to use this program and apply it for its intended purpose - it is easy to use and quite effective.
Step 3
There is also another method for converting images to text format - for this you can use Microsoft Office 2003. Text scanned in TIFF format, open in Microsoft Office Document Imaging application. Find the Send Text to Microsoft Word button on the program toolbar and click it. Everything that the program can read and recognize will be transferred to a new Microsoft Word document.
