Capture2Text - Japanese OCR Utility

Like you click the icon in the taskbar, and it puts up a transparent grey layer, you then click and drag over that layer to make a selection, making the area selected fully transparent (similar to how the snipping tool looks when taking snips)
Excellent suggestion. It would probably even be useful for some desktop users that don't want to use the hot keys. Hopefully I can find the time to implement this someday.

You're passing the string "x1 x2 y1 y2" as arguments. Try

Capture2Text.exe %x1% %y1% %x2% %y2%

As Vempele wrote, something like this is probably what you want:

Code:
F1::

x1 = 100
y1 = 100
x2 = 600
y2 = 600

Runwait, Capture2Text.exe %x1% %y1% %x2% %y2%

msgbox %clipboard%

You're welcome skribblets!

------------------------------------------

I recently (last week) posted version 3.8 of Capture2Text.

Download Capture2Text v3.8 via SourceForge (source code is included)

What Changed?

● Updated Tesseract OCR library to version 3.05dev (160105 snapshot). You should notice improved OCR accuracy.

Any chance of getting this to work with windows touch devices like the surface? Seems windows separates the mouse cursor from the touch and pen cursor, so i can't figure out how to use c2t in the current state Sad

What subtitled films are you watching? I rarely find any Japanese subtitles for movies I have. It's almost as if they don't exist.

I'll add touch support if I ever get a Windows touch device and probably not before then.

That's fair. What about putting the source on GitHub and I'll just make a PR?

Is the source code for this somewhere? Can't seem to find the source code on sourceforge.
