A central problem for many people is that they regularly have to work with scanned documents and images from which they have to extract information in text form. The traditional way to do this would be to manually type out the information, which can be extremely time-consuming and prone to error. Moreover, it's often also necessary to process the information in different languages, which can present an additional challenge. Furthermore, the task regularly arises to convert the scanned documents or images into a format that can be easily edited and searched, such as DOC, TXT, or PDF. Therefore, an ideal solution would be one that automates these processes, identifies the text from the images, and converts it into editable text format.

The tool "Free Online OCR" offers an efficient solution to problems encountered when working with scanned documents and images. By using OCR technology, also known as optical character recognition, it identifies text within images and converts it to an editable and searchable format, such as DOC, TXT or PDF. This reduces manual effort and minimizes potential errors that could arise from typing information. It also provides support for multiple languages, including English, German, French, and Spanish, thus facilitating the processing of texts in different languages. This makes the extensive work with scanned documents and images a quick and easy task.
