How can I Extract Text from Images

JOCR is a small freeware utility through which you can capture the image on the screen and then can easily convert the captured image to text.  It will simply take a kind of screenshot of that pdf document and then it will convert that screenshot (which is an image) to text. Very simple funda, right?

it can capture a particular region, any window or an entire desktop. After you finish capturing the image, just click Recognize button and that’s it you are done. The conversion of image to text will start and in no time it will recognize the text within the image. JOCR automatically opens a notepad for you and you can paste the recognized text in that notepad.

features of JOCR are:

• Its pretty small in size – just 84 KB.
• It recognizes almost 20 different languages.
• It’s totally FREE to use.

Note: JOCR requires Microsoft Office 2003 or higher version installed in your machine.
