NormCap has released its latest versions, 0.6.0 Beta 2 and 0.5.9, introducing an innovative screen capture tool that utilizes Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to capture text instead of images. This tool simplifies the process of copying text from websites or other sources by allowing users to select a portion of their screen, after which the recognized text is automatically copied to the clipboard for easy pasting.
To utilize NormCap, users simply launch the application and await the appearance of a pink border, which indicates readiness to select a screen area. The captured text can be pasted wherever needed. Users can customize settings through a gear icon located at the top right of the interface, where they can adjust language preferences for text recognition. The application offers two distinct capture modes: Raw-Mode, which preserves the text as recognized by the OCR without altering line breaks, and Parse-Mode, which formats the output based on predefined rules to enhance readability and organization.
To exit the application or cancel a capture, users can press the escape key. NormCap stands as a valuable tool for anyone needing to extract text quickly and efficiently without the complications of formatting from traditional screenshot methods.
Additionally, NormCap's versatility makes it particularly useful for students, researchers, and professionals who frequently deal with text-heavy content. As technology advances, features like improved language recognition, additional formatting options, and enhanced user interface elements could further solidify NormCap's standing as a leading OCR-powered text capture tool. Its unique approach not only streamlines the text extraction process but also opens up new possibilities for integrating text capture functionalities into various workflows and applications
