Image Text Extractor

This program is designed to extract text from images. It supports image formats such as PNG and JPEG. By default, it can detect English words. If you download language packages for other languages, you can use them by changing the lang parameter to the selected language's three-character form.

example

texta = pytesseract.image_to_string(resized_image, lang="tur")

Installation

Before running the program, make sure to install the necessary libraries. You can do this by running the following commands:

pip install opencv-python
pip install pytesseract
pip install pillow
pip install pyperclip
pip install 

Usage

To run the program, execute the script, and a GUI window will appear. Click the "SELECT FILE" button to choose an image file. The program will display the extracted text and the image in separate sections.

Buttons

• Copy: Copies the displayed text to the clipboard.
• Cut: Copies and deletes the displayed text.
• Delete: Clears the displayed text.

Language Support

The default version of the program is set up to detect English words. If you need support for other languages, download the corresponding language packages for Tesseract OCR. You can find more information and download links on the Tesseract GitHub page.

Note: If the file extension is displayed twice, the program may encounter an error. You can turn off file extensions in your file explorer.
