Description-en: Graphical GTK+ front-end to tesseract-ocr
gImageReader is a simple GTK+ front-end to tesseract-ocr. Tesseract is probably
the most accurate open source optical character recognition (OCR) software and
can recognize text in over 60 languages.
.
gImageReader supports automatic page layout detection but the user can also
manually define and adjust the recognition regions. It is possible to import
images from disk, scanning devices, clipboard and screenshots. gImageReader
also supports multipage PDF documents. Recognized text is displayed directly
next to the image and basic text editing including search/replace and removing
of line breaks is possible. Spellchecking for the output text is also supported
if the corresponding dictionaries are installed.
