As explained above OCR is a technology that enables you to extract data from an image and different types of documents. It scans and captures the images with the help of a digital camera and converts into editable and searchable data. Let’s try to understand this state of art technology with an example – Suppose, you have got a paper document or any important information that you got in an email format. Of Course a scanner is not enough to get access to edit and restore them. All that a scanner could do is take a snapshot of the document that is collecting whit, black and colour dots which is called a raster image.
If you want to extract data from an image and re-edit the data from scanned documents or image-only PDF then you require an OCR software. Lets now understand what OCR exactly does. It extracts every single letter on the document or scanned image and puts them into words and then into complete sentences and thus it enables us to edit the content of the original document.
