Optical Character Recognition
Contents
"OCR" routines match images of text to real characters. These characters can be used to supply text to a field in the same way that a database supplies a value to a field.
These Plugins are not supplied as standard with 
EscapeE but may be purchased from RedTitan.
| ▪ | Rocr Plugin for defining your own database(s) of recognizable characters. |
| ▪ | Tesseract Plugin: a general purpose OCR tool that uses public-domain software. (Supersedes OCR Plugin.) |
| ▪ | OCRust Plugin enables the optical character recognition of dot matrix printer characters. |
Optical recognition is used to read some barcodes too: see Barcode readers section.
