Optical character reading (OCR) software |
If you want to scan data, documents or faxes you
need optical character reading (OCR) software. This has the
capability of recognizing letters and words, converting a scanned
image, which is nothing more than a collection of dots (pixels) into
letters, numbers, annotation marks and symbols, into text a word
processing or spreadsheet program can understand.
Building up an archive of your letters, reports and
other documents is becoming more popular for keeping a record for
administration and tax purposes. OCR software is available in many
languages. A scanned document can also be directly faxed if you
still have
a modem installed.
