spudw2k Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME?Do you have Proper software installed? It requires the MODI software part of Office. Some people have said the link in this post gets them rolling. I had to go into the Office Add/Rem wizard and be sure that Office Document Imaging was enabled under Office Tools. Hope that helps.

Jfish Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 You should try to delete these and then run it again - it should work. _$WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS P.S. Ptrex, this is amazing. I never knew that Office came with scriptable OCR. I was skeptical that it would work - but I tested it on a PDF that I converted to Tiff and it got every word.

trinitrotoluen Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 I'm using office 07 with SP2. I copied image and paste into Microsoft Office Document Imaging then run OCR but always get this message :OCR was not successful (no text was found) on one or more pages.How can I use it ?

trinitrotoluen Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) OK, I wanna try the MODI interface first to find out exactly how it works ! Anyway thank you spudw2k >_< Edited August 6, 2009 by trinitrotoluen
xHPx Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I can't get this to work, I always get COM errors >_<Could it be because I only have Office Basic Edition?Also, I tried this, but the download only contains some readme stuff.
xHPx Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Nevermind, I got it working. Just had to go to Office installation and install MODI >_
JohnOne Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 (edited) This is a very interesting thread, and I could use something like this, if that is I had the know how.Anyway, before I satart looking to install office or try to grasp this concept may I ask a couple of questions ?Firstly, I read this thread and noticed people talking about reading pages of stuff, My question is this......Would if be able to read just a single charactor ?eg. (this is a .jpg, although the image I would want it to read would most likely be .tif)Secondly, could it read it directly off the screen or does it need to save an image and read it from that image ?Appreciate any answersJohn Edited August 24, 2009 by JohnOne AutoIt Absolute Beginners Require a serial Pause Script Video Tutorials by Morthawt ipify Monkey's are, like, natures humans.
dexxa Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 anyone having problem getting the script to work in windows 7 with office 2007. i have modi installed and it's working cuz i can use the modi gui to test it out. but it keeps throwing error at line 37 where it creates the modi.document object.
JohnOne Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Finally got this to work, its quite good, thanks. I wonder though, when it reads a tif file it throws up a viewer which you have to close to get resuls, but when reading a bmp file it just throws up the results. Anyone trying to still run this, All I installed out of office 2007 was micrsoft office tools, no word,exel,access etc, just the tools.

S0789300 Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 I've been using a modified version of this source code, with a screenshot capture program for a while and it works. However, has Ptrex or anyone noticed that the modi capture seems to have a border of 'accuracy' around it? That is, numbers or words around the edge of the image itself doesn't capture accurately sometimes? I am working with a list of items, and sometimes a word will be closer to the edge and therefore the capture isnt as accurate - any thoughts or fixes on this?? If you do please msg me.
coopdaveel Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 ptrex, you are da bomb! Your script is most helpful--both in its simplicity and for its educational content (for me at least.)I had to make an edit to make it work under the newer version of AutoIT, but it worked fine.Note to anyone looking to convert MDI files to TIFF (since Office 2010 doesn't have Microsoft Office Document Imaging): the COM object model will work for conversions. Must have a machine with MODI on it of course, but using the MSDN documentation and some edits to this script it can be done very simply. (See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa202834(v=office.11).aspx)Thank you, ptrex. You've saved me a lot of time, and possibly my company a lot of money. (We'll have to wait and see about the money part.)
