Sometimes the owner of a personal computer faces a rather difficult task in its features - to translate the handwritten text into digital format. Of course, you can do this work manually. However, this method is relevant only if the volume is insignificant. But what should the user do if he has a large-scale tome on his hands? Is there real-time handwriting recognition?
Of course, modern computer technology has already gone far from the level that was entrenched several years ago. Craftsmen every day create dozens of new programs that help facilitate the implementation of various tasks. Moreover, such utilities can be distributed both for a fee and for free. The difference will be in the reliability of the downloaded file, as well as the ability to resolve any emerging difficulties and malfunctions through the technical support of this software. Handwriting recognition today is not a particular problem. Several convenient utilities can easily cope with this task at once.
The most famous and popular is a handwriting recognition program called Fine Reader. In order for the user to be able to apply it, he will need a scanner. By the way, this device is useful in any case, no matter what utility you choose. Indeed, in order for the program to start working, it needs some initial information about the text. The easiest way is to create a scan. Although some programs are capable of recognizing handwritten text even in the presence of a conventional digital photograph of any format previously downloaded to the computer. Remember, the better the quality (resolution) of the image, the better the utility will do its job. Fine Reader can be easily found on the Internet and downloaded without any financial investments. Working with this program is quite simple, as it has a simple and convenient interface. However, the final result may have significant errors. This will depend on the quality of the scan, as well as the handwriting of the source.
Another handwriting recognition program that you should pay attention to is called Pen Reader. It will appeal to tablet owners. Its principle is fundamentally different from the previous utility. In this case, you get the opportunity to simply write on the touch screen, like a pen. In this case, the text will be translated with high speed and accuracy (about 97%) into a standard extension file. This program is distributed only for a fee and is designed specifically for Windows. It is especially convenient for students who can immediately write lectures in the form of text electronic files. In addition, Pen Reader “understands” even the most complex handwriting.
Handwriting recognition can also be done with a utility such as Cunei Form. It works on most operating systems, and is also able to quite clearly digitize magazines, newspapers, typewriter words, OCR files, and much more. This program has an extended range of options with which the user can adjust almost all the settings. The number of foreign languages in which handwriting recognition takes place exceeds 20. With all this, the utility’s interface is completely Russified, and it is distributed on the network completely free of charge. Here such selfless craftsmen are sometimes found on the expanses of the omnipotent Internet. Thanks to them, users get the opportunity, without any costs and financial investments, to easily and easily translate almost any manuscript into digital format.
