Read Text by Image

[DynamicRookie]

Hey There!

 

So, what i need to do is an app that can read text in a image (I.e. a png that has text saying "This is a png" and return the text to a variable)

I'm pretty much a newbie on AutoIt, my purpose is doing that but i don't know any function that can

Any help is much appreciated

Do a forum search for MODI or Tesseract...they are OCR (optical character recognition)  api.

They are also not very reliable, because a capital i looks like a lowercase l looks like a pipe | and sometimes like a 1...as an example.
