Introduction

Convert pictures of text to text files.

Details

A picture may paint a thousand words but text in picture form is difficult to use, especially for a computer. A picture of text from a book or newspaper cannot be edited in a word processor or dropped into a spreadsheet, it must first be converted to text. Hence the need for Optical Character Recognition (OCR) which converts a picture of some text to actual text which can then be manipulated by a word processor.
