IMAGE CONVERT TO
TEXT
The increasing digitization of information has
emphasized the need for efficient Optical
Character Recognition (OCR) mechanisms to
convert textual data from images into editable
formats. This research focuses on a comparative
ABSTRACT analysis of three widely used pre-trained Python
libraries—keras_ocr, pytesseract, and easyocr—in
real-world scenarios such as license plate
recognition, medical record processing, and ID
verification.
Image-to-text conversion, also known as Optical
Character Recognition (OCR), is the process of
extracting textual content from images. This
technology bridges the gap between visual and
digital information, allowing computers to "read"
and process text found in photographs, scanned
INTODUCTIO documents, and other image formats. At its core,
OCR works by analysing the patterns of light and
N dark in an image to identify individual characters.
The process typically involves six phases, from
image preprocessing in Python OCR to character
segmentation, feature extraction, character
classification and post-processing to refine the
output.

Conversion
It’s easy to develop an image-to-text converter
with Python. However, you need to do it correctly.
We have explained the procedure through steps,
making it easier to understand everything
involved.
From things you will need along the way to the
CONCLUSIO steps to follow, all the procedures from start to
N finish are clearly described. Just follow all the
steps and see your converter extract text from
images. Alternative methods include
[Link] and [Link], which allow
users to download the extracted text as a text file.
