What is OCR Software in Europe?

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software is software that converts different types of documents—such as scanned paper documents, PDFs, or images—into editable and searchable text. OCR software analyzes the shapes of characters in the document and translates them into machine-readable data. This technology is particularly useful for digitizing printed documents, allowing businesses and individuals to archive, edit, and search through physical content more efficiently. By using OCR software, organizations can save time, reduce errors, and improve document accessibility while making information easier to manipulate and manage.
