OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION
In last article we have studied about bitmaps and scanners;
So, what are the disadvantages of bitmaps;
- It requires of huge storage
- Difficult to search
OCR(Optical character recognition) is designed to scan the text and converts into ASCII form.
This is Optical character recognition software.
OCR contains the following parts:
- Using a standard font it is Times Roman 10.
- Handwritten text.
- Letters are un connected.
- A page contains different fonts, picture and table.
We all known there are different types of hand writing the major one are;
- Unconditional handwriting
In unconditional handwriting the letters will be separated but some write very good where their algorithm of recognition will be 85%.
- Cursive handwriting
cursive handwriting has changed the fonts world. Which will be slanting. Mostly written in postal code.
To check a given word in a document we use the word search option or ctrl + f .
But I hope after OCR came there has been no complaints about spelling mistake, it fix the errors itself.
