Hello everyone, I am trying to make a script which will search for text in a given area, and retype that text in a box. The text is very simple because it is not a capatcha.

The text is not in a gui, it is in a webbrower. Length of words varies, and speed is somewhat vital.

EDIT: The text is in an image, NOT actual text.

Probably know the answer already but: This is totally unrelated to your previous closed topic?

If so, what is it your are trying to "read"?

Jos

Yes it is unrelated to my other topic :)

I'm trying to read the text of images, as a friend has bet that I cannot get the text written down of 50,000 images he sent me within a week.. each one is just a plain word. PS. I have $1000 on the line ;)

Let me get this straight: You want to know how to read pictures to see of they have words in then, just like if you are dealing with a captcha, right?

Yes, but it isnt trying to be hidden like a capatcha, the letters are clear.

Considering there is other software out there that can do this out of the can why do you need to reinvent the wheel? Your $1000 reason isn't even close to being a reason. You already had one topic locked for you wanted to bot a game. I believe this question you have is for the same reason - to read text in a game window. Now, how about you prove me wrong and provide a screenshot of the application you are dealing with.

There is no application.. it is literally a folder with 50,000 images of plain text.. What the hell kinda game would even need you to detect words quickly O.O

PyroGoD,

To stop this exchange going on for ever, please just post one of the 50,000 images. It might even give someone an idea of how to help you. :)

PyroGoD,

You might like to look at the Tesseract UDF - it seems to be the favourite for this sort of thing. ;)

But as you will be using it a lot, please make sure you read my post at the end of the thread about fixing a memory leak. :D

P.S. And when you win the $1000, how about a donation to AutoIt to help keep the site going? :)

Sorry.. I thought he meant this thread :)

Edit: Ok, I've installed Tesseract, and also downloaded the required files.. although I have no clue how I can use it.. I google'd a bit and didn't find much that made any sense to me ;)

The tesseract thread is packed with examples.

Yea I get that, I saw some of them.. I just don't have a single clue what they do.. or how I can use it in my situation..

Have you tried any of the examples?

EDIT:

Or tried anything at all?

Have a go, its extremely unlikely your computer will blow up.

How can I try something when I don't even know what any of it does, or how it works..
