I have investigate. Begin running under windows sevenOneNote is complicated for me because I don't want to update and give me problems. If I try with office 2016 I may have problems.I appreciate the concern. I run 2016 and 365 together on one machine, but fear that 2016 will stop being effective at some point. For now I switch between them depending on what I want to do. Can't say I like the direction of travel and I don't actively use either version now - only work with some stuff already there that haven't exported yet.-Contro (February 25, 2021, 11:51 AM)Do you know if goes well under windows xp pro ?No idea about that I'm afraid. I do try to keep my OSs fully updated.-Contro (February 25, 2021, 11:51 AM)-Dormouse (February 25, 2021, 02:41 PM)
That works more easily than I anticipated. Looks as if it ought to be possible to load multiple pages. I'll be interested to hear the results of all your experiments.Appears as loading a jpg. so i very large jpg may be possible. Like a FireShot capture page. ...-Dormouse (February 25, 2021, 11:21 AM)
How do you use it offline? (Google Docs)I think is only online I afraid.-KodeZwerg (February 25, 2021, 11:44 AM)
Due lack of Information I cannot help since I dont know whats wrong.i don't see the option for recognize offline handwritten text.
The Help/Manual tells everything you need to know.
In the above link are steps explained for easy getting started.
If you do not like it, dont use it.
I just suggested it since to me it was easy to handle.
(I only used the TWAIN/Scan feature.)
And yes, results hard depend on your writing skills.-KodeZwerg (February 25, 2021, 05:25 AM)

FreeOCR Help
Good Luck-KodeZwerg (February 24, 2021, 02:48 PM)
I'm not convinced that FreeOCR will do handwriting. Most OCR programs don't. Of course, if the handwriting is regular enough they might work.I agree with you.
Most programs that will work are specifically set up to process handwriting as an input; OneNote for example. But they don't have a workflow that works well with a mass of handwritten documents. And many only work online (eg Pen to Print).
It seems as if it ought to be possible to have both capability and workflow, but I'm not sure it's been done yet. And maybe it's harder than it seems.-Dormouse (February 24, 2021, 04:35 PM)
Take a look at FreeOCR.Running
Uses tesseract engine that simplify additional languages, spanish is included by default if i remember right.
For pro usage = OmniPage-KodeZwerg (February 23, 2021, 02:31 PM)
If you want to do this in realtime, Windows 10 already has this built in to their touch keyboard. You'd obviously want a touch screen or drawing tablet to make best use of it, because doing it with a mouse is not a very enjoyable experience.only offline app. Recognizing the notes. Not in real time.
But if you want OCR (optical character recognition) on a scanned sheet of notes or something, then it's probably best to use a note-taking app that has that built in.-Deozaan (February 23, 2021, 01:48 PM)
When I do have some more free time left, I might be able to program an OLE/COM based word text-search&replace mechanism.Perfect. It's a good alternative.
(It would need to have original Microsoft Word [or Office with Word] installed to do it's job)-KodeZwerg (February 18, 2021, 06:24 AM)
Not quite what you asked for, but this Cool Tools web site entry is probably as close as you are likely to get: Rocketbook Everlast Reusable Smart NotebookSeems a difficult subject.Convert handwritten notes to computer text
I write a monthly commentary for a small local newspaper and blog extensively. For years I have been looking for a way to convert my script into text that I can load into Word. My astute brother-in-law sent me a RocketbookEverlast Notebook ($30) and the closer I looked into it I realized that this may be the tool I have been looking for.

Sorry, I missed the part about replacing words too.I use Everything several years ago !!!!!!!!!-reynolds_john (February 06, 2021, 04:41 PM)
May I suggest Everything ?Wait for 4wd. He is my guru.
I tested it on Word docx and doc and other files for content and it works brilliantly. You can configure it to just monitor particular folders if you wish, run as a service, etc. etc.
Command line supported as well.
I've used this in environments with massive (20 million)+ files and had great success too.
Best,
