If I blow the image up to where only two or three characters fit on the
screen (I have a 17" wide screen monitor), and, if I can get light
characters on a black background, I can "see" the text. However, at that
magnification, it's not practical to crawl around the screen looking for
words. It just takes too long.
Using Omnipage, I can process an image and extract the text, but screen
shots have too many elements interfereing with the text. Also, the
program
trys to make sense of fragments and peice them together into
semi-intelligent statements. It isn't always successful.
I've learned from experience not to bother with screen shots.
Take Care,
Dudley
