Scanned pages of a book, magazine, or important document sometimes need to be translated into plain text. It will not be difficult to do this - it is enough to have the Internet at hand.
Instructions
Step 1
So, you have a scanned book or just a high-quality photo of a document, and you are faced with the task of converting an image file into a text document. Out of habit, many begin to look for special programs with which you can recognize the text. But we live in an age of high technologies, and progress does not stand still, offering Internet users amazing opportunities to recognize text and then save it to a file. This can be done using online text recognition services.
