SimpleOCR utilizes Optical Character Recognition technology to convert your paper documents into electronic text that you can review and edit on Word or other applications.

Features:

  • Boasts a huge dictionary of over 120,000 words and a text editor that allows you to add new words with ease. The software recognizes text in multiple languages and over many formats  
  • Uses a despeckle option to reduce noise and increase overall accuracy. Also uses a text editor to highlight errors so that it is not necessary to spend time on tedious proofreading and correction of the documents. 
  • Has the ability to format multiple documents in batches, or to format a specific zone in the document that you want to highlight.
  • Can perform plain text extraction where it recognizes characters and words, but ignores the formatting so that you can make the document your own.
  • Has superior image retention which reduces the need to import your photos by another, more time-consuming means.
  • Format retention to capture things like font types and sizes, italics and underlining to give your document a high degree of accuracy.
  • The software is free of charge for all non-commercial uses
