The OpenOCR Project

The OpenOCR Project is an open-source initiative that develops software to convert scanned images of text into editable and searchable digital documents. It leverages optical character recognition (OCR) technology, which analyzes the shapes of letters and words within images to accurately recognize and digitize printed or handwritten text. By making this technology freely available, the project supports individuals and organizations in digitizing their text-based data efficiently, promoting accessibility and preservation of documents. OpenOCR fosters collaboration among developers and users to improve OCR accuracy and functionality without the costs associated with proprietary solutions.
