NewOCR - Another great tool for converting scanned documents into text you can edit
Posted by Mysti under Latest free tools , Popular posts
A while ago on this blog we looked at Optical Character Recognition software (OCR), which allows you to covert image files of text into text you can edit on your computer (read more). Well now there’s a brand new online tool which makes doing this even easier.
With the NewOCR website all you need to do is browse to the file you want to convert, select the language, and then click send file. Thats it, no registration is required.
With New OCR you can:
- Upload and convert as may files as you want
- Convert text from JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and multipage TIFF files up to 5MB
- Convert multipage PDF documents up to 20MB
- Download your results as a Word or text document
- Convert documents in 29 different languages
