==How does this work ?==
* You picture needs to have a strong contrast (black text, white backgrountbackground), and have a good resolution.* The OCR programs program scans the picture and uses a glyphs glyph libraries to detect the characters. Those that are recognised are transformed in into the corresponding character.* Dictionnaries will be used to minimize errors. These compare the resulting words with existing words to determine the outcome and guess the words that were not fully recognized words.
* Some programs recognize bold, italic or custom fonts size.
