Seaborgium Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Is there any script for OCR that allow it to be automatic by keep scanning a folder for input images and auto OCR the image and save it in another folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clicked Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 There are probably scripts for scanning a folder, and certainly various scripts that do stuff with OCR packages (try searching on OCR or tesseract). You will still have much work to do e.g. download and install the OCR package, get the AutoIt OCR integration working, get a scanning loop going ... My experience with tesseract (a free OCR) is that it is not very good, but then I'm mostly working with technical displays with names like TESTOA004Z, and no OCR is going to do a good job on that.

jdelaney Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 MODI is part of msoffice, but it's not included in 2010, but it can still be downloaded somewhere (google it)...results are not that great, as well....

Seaborgium Posted June 29, 2012 Author Share Posted June 29, 2012 Can i use other OCR like FreeOCR and use cygwin to make it automatic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdelaney Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 MODI is free, with SharePoint Designer 2007, which i think is also free: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982760Then you can call it in your script...just search MODI in the form, and you will get examples.
