    Depending on the output format you need you then either use Windows' "print to PDF" driver and print these documents on your cards or, if you need a picture format, install a printer driver to "print" to tiff, jpeg or png.

  • I have one large document I need to OCR (500 pages) I don't want to buy anything

    Another possibility would be to install a virtual printer driver like clawPDF and just print the required pages, either to PDF or to multipage TIFF (if your music scanner accepts that). Windows' own PDF printer doesn't seem able to print only part of an opened document.

    Az érdekes, hogy a pdf creator magja az amúgy open source, csak ugye nem teszik ki ezt az ablakba, meg buildből csak a reklámokkal telitoltat rakják ki. De! Létezik a ClawPdf ami konkrétan ugyanaz mint a pdfCreator, csak nincs benne a sok reklám meg hasonló borzalom: https://github.com/clawsoftware/clawPDF

  • How to "copy" the text that appears on your computer screen or image file
    1 project | dev.to | 26 Dec 2021
    First of all, regarding installation, since this is a developer community site, I will omit the details. Download the installer from here and run it (latest version recommended). Next is the initial setting, but basically you can finish it by following the instructions on the screen. However, setting up a cloud service is a bit complicated, so I'd like to briefly explain it here. ・When using Google Cloud Vision API If you search the web with "How to Create Google API JSON Credential" etc., you will reach the support page of paid software with the same function. See it. * To use the service, you need to set the payment method (credit card and PayPal can be used).
