Image englarger - OCR

[Will Helton]

I've been having some problems over the past several months with customers sending me texts as images to translate only to find that Abbyy FineReader isn't up to the task.

Just now I managed to find a great free photo editor that increases resolution and lets Abbyy finally do what it's supposed to:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/imageenlarger/

Hope others find this useful, too.

Regards,

Will

Hi Alexandra,

I hope you find it useful. It saved me from having to type out a marketing text by hand today! :)

BTW - I just had a look at your blog. Really nice! I look forward to reading more.

Regards,

Will

Hi Will,

I just installed it and my first test was very promising.

Thanks for the compliment. I didn't realize you read German :-)

Best,
Alexandra

Hi Alexandra,

I was really impressed with it (perhaps I should say too much - the text I used it on wasn't too terrible), so I hope it comes in handy for you.

I translate German and Dutch into English, so I find your blog a good read and very interesting.

All the best,

Will
