"OCR Terminal" is an online OCR service, which allows you to convert scanned images or PDF files into editable, searchable documents.

Printed text in your image is carefully and automatically converted into text, while formatting, page layout and unreadable text remain in your image.

Converting an image file is easy all it involves is two steps: Upload and process.

To begin, click on "Create New User". The process is extremely simple and we will have u set up in minutes. You can now enter our website using your username and password. All users get 20 free pages every month and you can check how many you have left here.

I am going to select a tiff image and then click here to begin uploading to our servers. Once your file has finished uploading, make sure you've uploaded the correct file. You can look at different pages of a multi-paged document or zoom in on the image. The document I uploaded contains printed text, embedded images and some tabular data.

Click on the "Yes" button to start the OCR process. Your document is now ready for download in a variety for formats.

Im going to have it downloaded as a word document first. The printed text is accurately recognized and you can begin to edit the text immediately. Notice that the format, two-column page layout, figures, tables and font have been preserved.

It is also possible to download the results as a pdf document. The PDF document incorporates the actual image itself, but now also includes searchable text and you can search through the large PDFs for exactly the word or phrase you're looking for with a simple Ctrl-F.

Remember you do have the document file format option of text or .rtf too. So there, now that youve seen it, how does one get started?

You can check out the faq page for answers to the other questions that you might still have about the site. Or you can try it out today, with twenty free pages every month.
