Transcript v2.1 is a nice program by Jacob Boerema. It helps when
transcribing text from original digital images (e.g., JPG, BMP, GIF)
of documents by having two separate windows (or viewers) displayed on
the screen at the same time. The original image is shown in the
"picture viewer" and your text file of the image's content is opened in
the "editor." It is not an OCR program (i.e., it does not convert the
image to text). Transcript is intended to help when transcribing by
enabling a person to see both the image file and the text transcription
file at the same time.)
My problem is that I would like to open PDF files in the "picture
viewer," which the program is unable to do, and then to visually
compare and then edit the transcribed or OCR content in the editor
window.
The program's author advised that this is not a feature of Transcribe,
and I wondered whether anyone knows of a similar program that would
allow me to view a PDF file in one window and the text version in a
separate window - both windows being on the screen at the same time.
But not an OCR program.
I am using Win98SE and Win XP Pro.
Transcript (Version 2.1.1 build 28 - October 14, 2005) can be found at:
