ABBYY Screenshot Reader




Product Features


Capture Two Types of Screenshots – Image and Text
Traditional screenshot capture programs take a picture of a program window or selected area of a user’s computer desktop. With ABBYY Screenshot Reader you can decide whether to take the traditional ‘Image Screenshots’ of your desktop application, Web site, presentation, or area of a document, or you can turn the text in graphics files into editable text and create ‘Text Screenshots’.

Image Screenshots
Easily create screenshots and save them as images, that you can share with your friends or use in presentations, training materials and various other documents. You can capture only selected area on the screen, a complete window or your entire desktop. Advanced function Timed Screen will even let you take a screenshot with 5 seconds delay so you have the possibility to ‘prepare’ the screen - for example open up according menus if making documentation for a software.

Text Screenshots
If you want to grab some text from an image file, Web site, presentation, or PDF you can quickly turn text areas into truly editable text that you can paste directly into an open application, edit or save as Microsoft® Word or Excel® documents. Screenshot Reader will convert the image of the screenshot into text.

Easy to Use with Practical Tools
Taking screenshots is an easy task with our set of practical tools. The program’s main screen allows to choose an area for the screenshot and an output format. Screenshot reader can be set up to launch automatically at each start up and will be always by your hand.

Variety of saving formats
Screenshots can be used for different tasks and you might need them in different saving formats. ABBYY Screenshot Reader lets you save Image Screenshots in JPEG, Bitmap or PNG formats. Text Screenshot can be saved as editable texts in .RTF, .TXT, .DOC or .XLS formats.

This technology is included in professional OCR and PDF conversion solutions like ABBYY FineReaderthat turns paper documents and images into editable electronic formats with superior accuracy and layout retenti

Screenshot Capture

Capture an interesting part of the screen and save it or share with your friends
Found something interesting on a Web site? It may be a picture of new product you want to buy or directions to a new restaurant. Or maybe you want to save a travel reservation confirmation because you’re not near a printer. You can easily capture it. Just mark certain part of the screen with ABBYY Screenshot Reader and send it as image by e-mail or by messenger or store it on your computer.

Send a screenshot of an error message to the technical support
Do you need to explain the problems with your PC? Simply capture program’s messages and dialogues or system information and send it to the technical support by e-mail together with the explanations of the problem. It’s a lot easier than remembering: “there is a problem with the .batix./320.dir file”!

Insert a screen image in a presentation, report or other documents
Do you need to illustrate the topics you describe? With ABBYY Screenshot Reader, you can prepare small – size images for your presentations and other documents. Open the image, create the screenshot, copy it to the clipboard and then insert into the document with CTRL+V keys or “paste” functions.

Use screenshots to compile instructions and guides
Screenshot Reader is a useful tool for every day work of technical writers or system administrators. It helps creating illustrations for instructions about program usage, manuals and guides.


Turn Screenshots into Editable Text

Insert information into a report
Sometimes texts which you need are not so easy to access. You may want to insert some statistical data from a Web site into a sales presentation, or a text passage from a 200 page PDF report or article into your dissertation. Simply select the quote you need and Screenshot reader will convert it into truly editable text. The extracted text can be copied to clipboard, saved as Microsoft Word or Excel documents or inserted directly into open applications.

Easily print driving directions
You are booking a room at a hotel or are going to a corporate event, but some of the arrival directions are only in flash and the other are sent in a separate e-mail. With Screenshot Reader, you can easily add all the necessary driving information into a Word document and then print it on single piece of paper.

Save lists from a website into an Excel file
Learning foreign language and need to gather the words you study from a website into an Excel file? Let Screenshot Reader do the job, instead of manually cutting and pasting each word. Or if you are going to buy a new product, you can easily export the reseller list from a Web page into an Excel table.

Cut out a piece of text from a graphic file
Screenshot Reader helps to extract text from brochures and leaflets that are only available as graphics. All you need is to select a piece of text and then it will automatically open as editable information in Microsoft Word.
