An easy-to-use Mac application with advanced optical character recognition technology that allows you to convert scanned or printed documents into searchable and editable text.
Application Description
OCRKit is an easy-to-use Mac application with advanced optical character recognition technology that allows you to convert scanned or printed documents into searchable and editable text. This is particularly useful for PDF documents received by email or created by DTP applications. It is of great use to everyone, home users, working business users and educational institutions.
Instead of retyping everything and making corrections, you can use the copy and paste tool on the document. It increases the efficiency and effectiveness of office workflows.OCRKit is fast and accurate, ensuring that the content of the document remains intact while saving time.

Automatic rotation
Auto Rotate automatically determines the orientation of each scanned drawing, so there is no need to manually pre-sequence the images before scanning. As Auto Rotate is independent of the OCR mechanism, this feature also helps to improve OCR results.

OCRKit Pro: additional features
Automatic language detection
Do you often find yourself switching OCR settings between documents in another language?
OCRKit Pro comes with a new “automatic” language selection. It transparently detects the language and independently switches to the appropriate letter and dictionary for each page of the document.
Higher multi-threaded performance
OCRKit Pro further optimises the use of the many kernels currently available. This allows the Pro version to archive even higher performance compared to the already super cool fast standard version of OCRKit.
Imprinting
Imprinter allows OCRKit Pro to print text on the page image. For example scanning dates or watermarks such as “APPROVED”, “VOID”, “PRELIMINARY”, ” CONFIDENTIAL” or any other content you may require.
