 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.
