A powerful optical character recognition (OCR) extension to capture and convert images to text
This extension adds a toolbar button to your browser to perform OCR
It allows the user to select a region in the currently active window, captures the area, and recognizes text using the internal powerful OCR engine (Tesseract engine)
It supports more than 100 languages, automatic text orientation, and script detection
The extension loads the JS library on the page and removes it when done, ensuring no long-term resource usage
It performs OCR offline with no server-side interaction and can extract text content from images, PDF documents, Powerpoint slides, or web pages
It includes features like progress bar for each detection module, image inversion for low confidence text extraction, and image modification for accuracy improvement
The latest version supports browser-level page zooming, OS-level screen zooming, and image language detection (still beta)
