Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension adds a toolbar button to your browser to perform OCR. When this action button is pressed, it allows the user to select a region in the currently active window. The extension captures the area and tries to recognize text inside this region using the internal powerful OCR engine (Tesseract engine). This extension uses the "tesseract.js" library that supports more than 100 languages, automatic text orientation, and script detection.

This extension loads the JS library on the page and removes it when you are done. This way, there is no long-term resource usage.

Engines:

Tesseract: Only extracts plain text from images and doesn't preserve formatting

IBM Granite-Docling: it can accurately interpret headings, lists, styles (bold, italics), tables, and mathematical equations.

Terrible OCR, the character recognition is horrific and if your text is even slightly angled, it just doesn't work.

I wish it had options to automatically copy the text to clipboard, option to translate the text & an option to share &/or save the text.

Did not work at all. The error message said that there were "missing Host Permissions". After a lot of digging, I discovered indications that this *might* refer to a file called MANIFEST,JSON , but the developer's website gives no clue as to what the missing code should be. I'd love to get this going, but at present it's useless.

realmente es de gran ayuda, el único defecto es que tarda un poco la transcripción de lo que dice la imagen
