How to Convert JPG, BMP, TIF, GIF and JPEG to MS Word using OCR Software


Computers produce two types of output, namely soft copy and hard copy. Hard copy is printed documents, a user sometimes needs to scan the documents to convert it into soft copy for editing or to attach it to an email.

Scanned documents are normally saved in a computer either as images or in portable document format (PDF). Image formats have the extension of JPG, GIF, and PNG. Though scanning avoids retyping of documents, making a couple of changes is tricky as one can opt to redo the entire typing of content which consumes much of time and efforts. Many are not aware of how to convert the documents and make it editable from any format using Optical Character Recognition software. It is a just one click tool used to convert images and PDF files to editable word format with accurate texts, spacing, and original formatting.

JPG to Word Converter is a software that can read and recognize text from images or scanned documents and convert it to text-based formats. It can convert text from BMP, PDF, TIF, and JPG in more than 40 supported languages back to its original language text, fonts, and styles. The JPG to Word output retains texts, tables, graphics, layout and logical structure in single or multi-page documents. The software is available on Softonic website => Download it here and at the company website => Download it here.



The software corrects broken texts and characters, rotated, skewed and tilted images to better accuracy and recognition. Converted documents can be secured using password and watermark, this protection prevents users from viewing, copying or distributing the document. To carry out and enjoy the services of images to word conversion, find the best OCR online by searching for JPG to Word converter and download the software. Once downloaded, follow a couple of simple steps to install.



To Run The Software
» Double-click on the desktop icon, a simple user interface will open.
» From the left side of the program, select the image file to convert from your PC or scan it from a device connected to your PC.
» Choose the relevant output, which can be searchable PDF, Word, Text, HTML, and text-only PDF.
» Specify language input file like English, French, German, Spanish etc.
» Check the Auto Rotate and Auto Skew boxes to correct the rotation and skew of the JPG file if there is any.
» The input image preview window will show the input image on the right. Check on whether to view the converted file after conversion and choose a location.
» Hit the save button to convert the document.

When the conversion is complete, then you are able to change any text in the converted file. The ability of the software to digitize various file formats, many distinctive features and intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) are the reasons why customers and users of the program keep growing rapidly.



The advantages of the software is that once it has finished the conversion, you can find, edit or replace specific text in the converted Word file. And since the file is in text format, screen readers or speech synthesizers can be used to read the text from the file for the visual impaired.

Most OCR software works in the same manner, though you should by particular in selecting one, this is because there is a difference in quality and accuracy among those. Some are of low quality and produce a garbled output file with unrecognized character. This happens because of OCR accuracy of the software resulting in partial file conversion. JPEG to Word Converter by Soft solution has a high accuracy in file conversion with the support of different languages. JPEG to Word Converter solves all your converting needs and saves you that long and hectic process. It can convert JPEG, BMP, TIF, GIF and JPG files to not only in MS Word document but also in PDF, Doc, HTML and Text files simultaneously. The software is very easy to use and consist only single window so it won't irritate you to swapping around the screens.

How to Install an Android OTA Update Without Losing Root

IMG_8287
Over-the-air updates have long been the bane of many rooted Android users’ existences. It’s an endless battle: installing the update breaks root or won’t flash at all, but everyone wants the latest version of their mobile OS. Thanks to a new tool called FlashFire, the struggle may be over.

Why OTA Updates Don’t Play Nicely with Rooted Phones



The root process also installs an application like SuperSU, which controls access to the su binary, so you can choose which applications are allowed to have root access.Android is based on Linux, so Android devices come with a “root” user that functions like the Administrator user account on Windows. By default, Android doesn’t give you access to the root account. Rooting is the process of enabling access to the root account, installing the su binary. Applications can call su to gain elevated privileges, so they can break free from Android’s security sandbox and do more powerful things. Android doesn’t come pre-rooted because of the security problems this could lead to, especially for less technically inclined users.
You’ll usually lose your root access when you install an operating system update. On Lollipop and earlier versions of Android, the over-the-air (OTA) update sets your Android system partition back to its factory state, removing the su binary. On newer devices with systemless root, it overwrites the boot image. And if you have a custom recovery, the OTA update may not be able to install itself at all.
Once upon a time, SuperSU had an “Survival Mode” that would let you flash updates, but that’s no longer around. Enter FlashFire.

What Is FlashFire?

FlashFire is powerful tool from Chainfire, the maker of SuperSU, that allows rooted users to perform a variety of actions, like flashing OTA updates and full zip files, create and restore backups, wipe data, and much more. It effectively eliminates the need to use recovery to manually backup or restore, and automatically handles un-rooting and re-rooting when flashing update files.


On many devices, having root will prevent OTAs from downloading and flashing. On some devices it will actually download, but you would need a tool like FlashFire to successfully flash it. On other devices, it will not actually download, so you’d have to get the OTA file some other way, and then maybe you can flash it with a tool like FlashFire. If you can’t get the OTA file, you may be out of luck.Theoretically, it should work on many, if not most, Android 4.2+ handsets. However, there are caveats.
Furthermore, if you’re running a rooted device that’s getting a full version update—from Lollipop to Marshmallow, for example—things get murkier. Since there’s no way to root Marshmallow without an unlocked bootloader, you’ll completely lose root access if your device’s bootloader is locked. That’s unavoidable. If you’ve unlocked the bootloader, however, FlashFire should be able to preserve (or at least reinstate) root access once the update is finished.
So: while FlashFire isn’t guaranteed to work on every device, if you’ve gone the “official” route to root your phone, it will probably work.
It’s worth noting that FlashFire is in beta at the time of writing. That means features may not yet work as intended, and certain devices may experience more bugs than others. If you’re not scared away by such things, you’ll have to first join the beta program before you can download the app. I also encourage anyone interested to check this thread on XDA, too, before getting started.

How to Use FlashFire to Flash an OTA Update, Without Losing Root

When you get notified that there’s an update available for your device, the first thing you’ll want to do is go ahead and download it—but don’t install it. If you tell the update to go ahead and install, it will likely fail since you’re running a rooted device.
Screenshot_20160418-234928
Instead, fire up FlashFire once the OTA has finished downloading. (If you don’t have it yet, join the beta program and then download the app.) It should automatically detect the update file and ask if you want to generate the actions to flash it. Go ahead and tap “OK.”
Screenshot_20160418-235335
This will generate a screen that may seem a little overwhelming to novice users, but it’s essentially just a breakdown of what FlashFire intends to do with the OTA file. Each option is customizable if you tap on it—for example, if you don’t want to wipe the cache partition, simply de-select that option. You can also add various actions, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend doing that right now.
If you have a custom recovery like TWRP installed, FlashFire will back it up before starting the process, and restore it afterwards.
Screenshot_20160418-235346
Once you’ve finalized the set of instructions, hit the “Flash” button. It will give a warning that it can take a bit of time for FlashFire to load, and a couple of black screens may appear. Go ahead and tap “OK” again.
Screenshot_20160418-235404
After that, FlashFire will reboot and you’ll see a myriad of scrolling text on the display. Leave the device alone to do its thing—that’s just FlashFire running the needed commands. When it’s finished, it’ll reboot with the update flashed and root restored. Boom. So simple.
Screenshot_20160419-095207

What to Do if Flashing the OTA Doesn’t Work

If you’ve modified your device in a way that prevents FlashFire from applying the update—maybe you’re running a custom kernel, or the /system partition has been modified by theXposed Framework, for example—then the update will “fail.” There’s currently no notification that the update wasn’t applied, so you’ll have to jump into the Settings > About phone menu and see if the build number has changed. If not, then you know the update wasn’t applied (there’s also a good chance Android will notify you that the update still needs to be installed).
When this happens, the best thing to do is to download the factory image for your device if it’s available. In this example, I’ll be flashing the newest update (April 2016 security patches) onto my Nexus 7.
Once downloaded, copy the factory image’s .tgz file to your phone’s internal storage or SD card.
Open up FlashFire and tap the floating action button (the red button with the plus) in the bottom right corner. Select “Flash firmware package.”
Screenshot_20160418-234948
This will open up a file manager of sorts, which should default to the root internal storage folder. Scroll down until you find the file you just moved to the device.
Screenshot_20160419-092730
Once you select the image file, FlashFire will scan the archive to verify its contents, then present a list of what can (and will) be flashed. You’re free to select what you want here—if you have a custom recovery and want to keep it that way, simply de-select the “recovery” option, for example.
Screenshot_20160419-092740 Screenshot_20160419-092855
Once you’re ready to flash, just tap the checkmark in the upper right corner. You’ll once again be presented with the list of actions before it proceeds, so if you want or need to change anything, now’s the time.
Screenshot_20160419-092903
After you’ve confirmed all the steps, hit the “Flash” button. You’ll see the same warning about FlashFire taking some time to load and that a couple of black screens may appear. Just hit “OK.”
Screenshot_20160419-092942
FlashFire will reboot and do its thing. Since it’s flashing a full image file and not just a simple update, it could take a little while for it to finish. Once it does, however, it’ll reboot and you’ll be good to go.

How to use a PC as A Wireless router

Looking for a way to convert your laptop or desktop into a wireless router? You may find yourself in a situation where there isn’t a wireless router around for everyone to connect to. If only one computer is connected to a cable or DSL modem, you can convert that computer into a router or wireless router, if the computer has a wireless card.
Before we talk about the setup process, it’s important to know the requirements. The main requirement is that the computer has to have at least two network interfaces installed on the system. You can either have two network cards or one network card and a wireless card. If you only have one network interface, you can’t convert your computer into a router.
Also, on Windows computers, the process of setting up this router functionality is calledInternet Connection Sharing. However, in order to have clients connect to the host computer wirelessly, you also have to setup an ad-hoc wireless network that connects to the Internet using the other network interface installed on the machine.
For a better understanding, here are the tasks we need to complete in order to make your computer into a wireless router:
Step 1: Enable Internet Connection Sharing on the Local Area Connection interface
Step 2: Create a new ad-hoc wireless network
Step 3: Connect to the new wireless network on the host computer
Step 4: Connect each client to the new ad-hoc wireless network

Step 1 – Enable ICS

To enable ICS in Windows, open the Control Panel and click on Network and Sharing Center. Make sure you are in icon view and not category view. Click on Change adapter settings in the left-hand menu.
change adapter settings
Now right-click on Local Area Connection and choose Properties. Note that on some other sites state that you should right-click on Wireless Network Connection, but this would mean the wireless connection would be shared and all clients would have to connect via Ethernet. It’s a lot more complicated and I’ve never even been able to get it to work, so stick with Local Area Connection if you want to make your life easier.
lan adapter properties
Click on the Sharing tab and there is really only one box you can check: Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s Internet connection.
network adapter properties
When you check the box, the dropdown box under Home networking connection will become enabled. Here you want to select the wireless network connection for your wireless card.
home networking connection
If you have more than one listed, it could be that one of them is a virtual adapter. Make sure to not choose that one. You can tell if there is a virtual adapter when you look at all the adapters after clicking Change adapter settings at the beginning of this article.
virtual wifi adapter
Click OK and close out of the Properties window. Now the LAN connection will be shared and we can move on to step 2.

Step 2 – Create Ad-Hoc Wireless Network

To create the ad-hoc wireless network that the client’s machines will connect to, we need to go back to Network and Sharing Center and click on Set up a new connection or network.
setup new connection
Now scroll down and click on Setup a wireless ad hoc (computer-to-computer) network.
setup ad hoc connection
Click next and then give your network a name. This name will be the SSID for the network that other users will see on their computers. For Security type, choose None and leave the Security key box blank.
new ad hoc network
Also, make sure to check the Save this network box. Click Next and it will setup the new wireless network and tell you that it’s ready to use. Click Close and move on to Step 3.

Step 3 – Connect to Ad Hoc Network

Now that the new network has been set up, we need to make sure we are connected to it on the host computer. To do this, click on the network icon in the notification area of the taskbar.
wireless networks
As you can see, my network is called Shared and the status is Waiting for users. This means the host computer is already connected and is waiting for other users to connect. You can click on the network name and click Connect if the system didn’t connect automatically. Once another user connects, the status should change to Connected.
connected to ad hoc

Step 4 – Connect Clients

The last step is the easiest. Just go to a client machine and click on the network icon and click on the ad-hoc network name. You should connect automatically without any issues.
The only change you have to make on client machines is in Internet Explorer. Open IE and then click on the gear icon and choose Internet Options.
internet options
Click on the Connections tab and then click on LAN Settings at the bottom.
connections ie tab
You want to go ahead and uncheck anything that is checked here. Automatically detect settings will most likely be checked, so make sure to uncheck this box.
auto detect settings
Note that you should only follow this procedure on the client computers, not the host computer. At this point, you should be able to connect to the Internet from the client machine.

Troubleshooting

If you are connected to the ad-hoc network, but are not able to access the Internet on the client machine, you can try a couple of troubleshooting tips.

Reset Winsock

After playing around with ICS on several computers, there were times when I could open a command prompt and ping a website like Google.com, but could not access it via the web browser. If you’re having a similar issue, you can try resetting Winsock. To do this, open an administrative command prompt by clicking on Start, typing in cmd and then right-clicking on cmd and choose Run as Administrator.
run as admin
Now type in netsh winsock reset and press Enter. The command will complete and it’ll tell you to restart the computer.
reset winsock
If you’re still having issues connecting clients to the Internet, post your situation here and I will try to help. The process is a bit complicated, but if you can get it to work, it’s a great little way to connect multiple clients without additional software or hardware. Enjoy!
