OCR

This OCR software can recognize text in scanned images and save it as ASCII text, which can then be further processed with an editor or a word processor. Correction rules can be defined for characters that are difficult to recognize. It is possible to store different fonts in separate character set databases, so that once learned character sets from e.g. a magazine can be used again and again.
