pymage-to-text

OCR utility using Amazon Textract and Python via Boto3

I actually use this quite a bit. Textract has strong enough quality to make it worth your time in my opinion. I usually build an executable, set a shortcut to it on my desktop with a hot key (ALT-CTRL-P). Then anytime I want text from a video or an image I just screenshot directly to the clipboard, ALT-CTRL-P to run and then paste the text.

1. Screenshot an image to your clipboard

2. Run pymage-to-text

3. Paste your extracted text to your text editor
