TextMan – OCR text detection

Never get annoyed by unselectable text on websites, PDFs, videos, images or system user interfaces again. Just select the region of your screen in the same manner as you would take a screenshot and find all recognized text in your clipboard ready to get pasted anywhere.

All processing is done locally and none of your data gets uploaded or shared.

After text is detected you see a preview overlay where you can let it read aloud.
If you have already an image on your clipboard this can be converted directly into text via a menu option.

Supported languages for text detection are English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, and Chinese (both simplified and traditional).
