Capture2text

Capture2Text enables users to quickly OCR a portion of the screen using a keyboard shortcut. Created by cb4960

Free Open Source
Windows

Capture2Text enables users to do the following:

1. Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
Allows the user to quickly snapshot a small portion of the screen, OCR it and (by default) save the result to the clipboard.

2. Speech Recognition (experimental)
Using speech recognition the user can speak into their microphone and Capture2Text will convert the speech to text. If the speech recognition technology is not 100% sure, Capture2Text will present the user with a list of the most likely transcriptions. The selected result will (by default) be copied to the clipboard. More Info »
