Just a warning to those who may be considering upgrading from version 11 or
lower to version 12. In V12 Snagit removed the option of text capture. I use
this a lot and was disappointed it was removed. I purchased an upgrade and got
caught. (I was offered a refund.) I have to use version 11 for
Jennifer,
Thank you for the clarification. I did a bit of searching online at Techsmith
in the v11.4 help file and found the following:
Text: Captures text within the selected area as an editable Rich Text Format
file (RTF).
I suppose it would have its uses. I never had a use for such an OCR
The thing that I always wish that I could do with Legacy is to just paste an
image into a record (usually source details) and leave Legacy to save it.

Don't understand the search you are doing, but could date format be an issue?
European dates frequently use DMY vs. MDY in US. So there is no month for
2-20-1950. That would be a normal reject. Does your search tool allow
entering text for the month?
just a thought.

Checkout the FREE open source utility Greenshot. Does not do videos, but it
does do OCR, and can capture full length web pages in MSIE(only) browser that
are longer than the visible window. Multiple image formats, image editor,
annotations, multiple output destinations, etc. Can capture drop

I think he wants Legacy to perform OCR on the source
The underling program is a database that is why the links to the image are
stored and not the image. Your file would start to grow in size if you were
to store the images in the database.

Denise,
Sorry, I should have explained further.
You can of course capture text, but not since V 12 can the output be anything
other than an image file. You used to be able to have the output to editable
text such as a .txt file.
You used to be able to choose to capture as Image, Text, Video.
