OCR – text recognition

OCR is a method of recognizing text on images. We work based on the ISO 8859-1 (8-bit) standard which ensures that all Danish characters are supported without problems.

This helps in recognizing both new printed documents as well as old fonts from typewriters. However, handwritten documents and especially text in italics can be difficult to identify and thus the result with OCR on handwritten text can be challenging.
