Extract Text: a practical guide

Sometimes the container is irrelevant. You have a screenshot of a receipt, a photo of a whiteboard, or a picture of a paragraph you need to quote, and what you want is the words. This tool runs recognition on the image and puts the result in an editable box, so obvious mistakes can be corrected before you copy it into a note, an email or a document.
