Uppercase "I" does not resemble any letter, let alone the correct one. Lowercase "i" logically requires a loop in this system, but does not get one. Examples: an "l" (lowercase ell) is the same as an "e", but taller. Palmer, to me, is just joined printing also - except that with Palmer the printing is intentionally malformed, forced to conform to arbitrary rules, and with goofy loops added, which all ends up making the letters not look like letters anymore. *specifically, the kind of italic hand featured in instruction books like Write Now and my own attempts to learn it. Too many instances of grade school teachers reminding my classmates and me that true cursive is not "joined printing".and that's all italic handwriting is to me* I've tried to learn italic handwriting but just can't get into it. I think my elementary school was a freak in that area.

But if you want something like out of a PDF out of, where the PDF's are all images to begin with, it still works.Įdited by hamluis, 28 August 2017 - 01:14 PM.I was taught something incredibly close to Palmer.but it wasn't Palmer. If the on-screen text is text that you can select, it works (but selecting and copying should do the same). Note that it takes the on-screen image, and like makes its own image from that and then OCRs it. If you want 2-3 pages of a PDF, it will do it. This is just a work around if you need it. But there are other programs to convert a PDF to text. You want to capture a whole page at a time, so that is where this comes into play. Usually a web page or PDF you can enlarge the print and work around it. Just make the on-screen text larger and those errors go away. The only trick is if the on-screen text is tiny, it will pick up a lot of errors doing it. It will OCR in various languages, and do right well from my experience. (With PrintScreen on the keyboard and InfraView, I have no need to use anything else for that). I do not use it for capturing images, but that is what I hear it doesn't do well. You have to do it a lot for 100+ page PDF but it works. I use it with PDF's that are locked and that you cannot copy text out of it, and it will let me do it no problem. If you want an OCR program, it is tremendous. I am moving to another computer and I would like the freeware version of the program. I wish I had access to the original setup disk. I got it with a printer that was like 3 printers back for me. It disappears and you can click and size a square anywhere on the visible screen (you cannot scroll at this point) and it will OCR that part of the screen and put it where you indicated (clipboard or a file etc).Įver want to clip a list of files in some program that won't let you do it? This program will do it. From there you choose the type of OCR read, and language and then go. Next, you are presented with its small screen. The way it works is that see some text on the screen so you click it (icon is a red square with an arrow pointing up) in the task bar. It comes bundled with printers usually, but you can purchase it commercially off of their website I think. It is an OCR reader program and a pretty good one at that. Mod Edit: Topic dates to 2006.I suggest that you respond to more current topics where the OP can possibly be assisted by the comments you make - Hamluis. Generally speaking, if you have a scanner, having an OCR program is better than having none. Naturally the folks at ABBYY want to sell me an upgrade, I recall some info provided, The latest copyright date on version 5 is 2001. Strange new words appear in the middle of sentences, It takes some getting used to, some errors are made by it that simply demand correction manually. I felt like an editor again, chopping up the news and copy/pasting it I saw fit. I was then becoming more selective about how I fed the cashier the groceries in the cart, That made it possible to have a easy to read, categorical shopping list complete with current prices. I found, after several hours of playing with it, that I had a functional set of techniques worked out rich text format) 'cause I used boldface & colored type. Scanned 'em and the file, which is not an image file like a Photoshop. I tested it using grocery store receipts. I also wasn't to sure about the size of it versus the benefit.īasically, it is an OCR.
