Dot matrix OCR Thursawday |

As mentioned in the last post, we’re doing some major OCR work at the moment. Some of the manuscripts in my writing trunk are 20+ years old. We’re using the demo of Omnipage 15 and think I’ll be buying Omnipage 16 ($149). There is a more expensive pro version for $499, but I don’t think I’ll be needing all those features. This is work intended for another website primarily although I have shared some of my fiction writings here in the past, see the 666 category on 6/6/06. My past experiences with OCR haven’t been as smooth as this one, so I’m hopeful to get the works all digitized.




If you’re really bored, you can try Tesseract. Linux but apparently it has one of the best algorithms although it’s not very mature.
