OCR - Image Reader for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge adds a convenient toolbar button for OCR functionality. When clicked, users can select a region within the active window. The extension captures the area and utilizes the powerful Tesseract OCR engine to recognize text within the selected region. Additionally, this extension uses the "tesseract.js" library, which supports automatic text orientation, script detection, and over 100 different languages. It features a progress bar for each detection module, as OCR can be a slow process. This helps to enhance the overall efficiency and speed of the OCR technology.

It has the ability to extract text content from a variety of sources, including images, PDF documents, and Powerpoint slides. It can also extract the content of a web page even if the user section is restricted.

OCR - Image Reader for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge loads the JS library on the page only while in use, minimizing long-term resource usage. OCR - Image Reader for Chrome performs OCR offline, without any interaction with a server. It downloads the language training database only once, ensuring a better quality of service.

A great option to retrieve text from an image without having to manually copy it - also, it formats the converted text saving you even more time.
