IDEA: OCR & paste
kartal:
kleptomania`s success rate is not very high.I have tried it in xyplorer and gave me gibberish for example.
one could -stupidly- argue that it's OCR performed by the user as opposed to the computer :)

I thought that was traditionally known as "reading" 8)
I would love to have a program which would allow me to select part of my screen, perform OCR on it and copy the recognized text to the clipboard.

That's exactly what Kleptomania does.
I'd like to conjure up a tiny application which allows you to "write directly to the clipboard" in the easiest, fastest most intuitive and least intrusive way. I'd call it ClipWrite.

Good luck with that, but, you could always keep a small fast editor like TED Notepad running in the background?

I'm using for this purpose JOCR. Not very new, not always 100 % reliable, but free, simple and does what it's supposed to.

It looks like JOCR requires Msoffice to be installed? I do nto have it and it gives me error.

You're right, I completely forgot it, sorry. From the website:
JOCR requires Microsoft Office 2003 or higher version.

Anyway, for MS Office users it's quite useful tool.

It doesn't work on very small fonts. Could that be the problem?
