Modern telephones and digital cameras allow you to take high-quality pictures of pages with text, various entries. At the same time, in order to create an electronic text document on their basis, it is enough to use one of the special applications.
Install one of the programs for text recognition from images. The greatest functionality is provided by Adobe FineReader. This application is paid, but it has a fairly long period of free use, which is enough to get acquainted with the main functions of the program and its further purchase. Launch Adobe FineReader and select the appropriate language for the recognized text, then specify the path to the images from which you want to recognize the information. Wait until the program completes all the necessary actions. After that, the text converted into electronic form will appear in the right column, which can be saved in the DOC format. Remember that the application only recognizes typed text. It is also desirable that the quality and size of the photo be high enough. If the text is in a foreign language and needs to be translated into Russian, then use the translate.google.com service by copying the fragment there and pressing the Translate button. Use the Google Translate mobile application for Android, which allows you to translate text from a photo or image directly from your phone. … To do this, download the program from the Android Market and launch it. You will need to take a picture of the text through the application itself, which will automatically launch the camera. This is a very useful feature for travelers. For example, you can take a photo of a sign, road sign, or advertisement and translate the text on it. Google will automatically send the image to its own servers and send a translation after a while. However, unfortunately, this application is only available to owners of smartphones based on Andoroid. Everyone else will have to use the functionality of computer applications for text recognition described above.
