OCR Q&A

What is OCR?

OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition. It's a technology that converts different types of documents, such as scanned paper documents, PDFs, or images captured by a digital camera, into editable and searchable data.

 

How does OCR work?

OCR uses pattern recognition to identify characters within an image. It analyzes shapes, sizes, and patterns of text to recognize and convert it into machine-encoded text.

 

Is OCR always accurate?

While OCR technology is highly advanced, accuracy may vary based on factors like image quality, text complexity, and language. High-quality images typically yield more accurate results.
