OCR in Writer

Post by palekna »

Back when I used to used MS Office I was able to scan a document into word and use the OCR [Optical Character Recognition] provided by my scanner software. Is there a way to do this in Open Office? I can't seem to find it!

Some of the OCR applications integrate in OOo but not all it seems.
What's your OS, OOo version and your OCR software ?
LibreOffice 7.6.2.1 on Xubuntu 23.10 and 7.6.4.1 portable on Windows 10
