Optical Character Recognition, or OCR, is the process of recognising text within images and digital documents in order to transform it into a machine-readable format. An OCR Developer, therefore, works to build software to recognise text from within an image or document. This can be extremely useful when it comes to recognising text from a range of documents, such as bank checks, photos and other files, allowing quick and easy data collection and management, as well as data extraction for a range of purposes.

Here’s some projects that our Expert OCR Developers have made real:

  • Our developers have designed and developed software to automate the input of data from external websites
  • We’ve created programs to extract phone numbers from images
  • We’ve developed websites that use Barcode processing alongside OCR technology to automatically recognise objects
  • Our developers were able to create an app using AI/ML technologies which could recognise licence plates on a mobile phone
  • We’ve used Python along with Pytesseract OCR library to create scripts that even automate websites

Our clients trust our developers to find the best possible solution for their projects using OCR technologies. From complex deployments to simple scripts, our team of experts is ready to take on any challenge. So if you need help automating input or extracting text from images or documents, why not get in touch with us via Freelancer.com today and see what our expert OCR developers can do for you?

    I have a 20-page PDF that must be reproduced in Microsoft Word so I can freely rewrite paragraphs across every page. The converted file has to look identical to the original—same margins, fonts, tables, images, headers, and footers—while remaining fully editable. Accuracy in layout is essential because the document contains several complex tables and embedded graphics I want to update later. Timing is tight: I need the finished .docx back within 48 hours of awarding the job. Please use whatever tools or techniques you trust—Adobe Acrobat, OCR, manual formatting, or a hybrid approach—as long as the result meets the standards below. Deliverables • A clean, editable Word (.docx) version of the entire 20-page PDF, perfectly mirroring the original formatting &...

    Remember this should work offline environment I have a batch of English-language PDFs that were scanned as images. Each file contains a mix of cleanly typed passages and more challenging handwritten notes in the margins. I need every legible word pulled out with the highest accuracy you can achieve and stored directly in a MySQL database, not as flat files. Accuracy matters more than speed; feel free to combine engines such as Tesseract, Google Vision, or AWS Textract—whatever blend gives you the best recognition rate on both printed and cursive text. Pre-processing for skew, noise, and contrast is expected so the handwriting is captured as reliably as the typed sections. The database is already provisioned; I will share connection details and a simple schema suggestion (doc_id, p...

    Screenshot Phone Number Saver

    I need a small, reliable utility that runs on both iOS and Android. The idea is simple: whenever I take a normal system screenshot, the app wakes up in the background, uses on-device OCR to pick up any phone numbers visible on that image, and then offers me a quick pop-up. If there is only one number, the pop-up can show it pre-filled with the option to save straight to my contacts. When several numbers are present it must list them so I can pick the right one before saving. After I confirm, the chosen number should be added to the native address book under a new contact; I can edit the name later in the Contacts app if I like. Please keep the workflow as seamless as possible—no extra buttons, no manual entry steps beyond my confirmation tap. The build must pass App Store and Goo...

    I have a collection of single-column scanned text documents that I need converted into a clean, fully searchable Excel file. The pages are almost entirely typed, but a handful contain small handwritten notes that must be captured as well. Your task is to run accurate OCR, transfer every line of typed text into logically structured spreadsheet columns, and add the handwritten snippets in a separate field or clearly mark them so I can review later. No fancy layout reproduction is necessary—clarity and searchability are what matter. Deliverables • One Excel workbook containing all extracted text, ready for filtering and formulas • Handwritten content entered or flagged in its own column • A quick quality check to ensure the spreadsheet matches the source scans Plea...

    I have a set of mixed-content scans—some handwritten notes blended with printed pages—that must be rebuilt from the ground up. Every heading, table, margin, footnote, bullet, graph, illustration, and equation has to land in the same spot it occupies in the originals, but end up in a clean, fully searchable .docx file and a high-resolution, professional-presentation PDF. My workflow expects you to run reliable OCR (ABBYY, Adobe, or an equivalent), proof the text line by line, then fine-tune layout in Microsoft Word so spacing, fonts, pagination, and embedded objects match the source perfectly. Once the Word file is locked down, export a print-ready PDF that preserves vector quality on charts and crisp resolution on images. Deliverables • Fully editable, proofread .docx ...

    I’m building a small showcase app for a school contest and need a polished Android solution that makes printed text friendlier for students with dyslexia. The flow is straightforward: the user opens the camera, points it at a page, and the app instantly recognises the words (OCR). As soon as the text is captured, each word is spoken aloud in sequence while that same word is highlighted on-screen in real time. The result should feel like a karaoke-style guide that lets the reader follow along word by word without losing their place. Must-have fundamentals • Android only — Kotlin or Java is fine, as long as it runs smoothly on common mid-range phones. • Real-time OCR (Google ML Kit, Tesseract, or any on-device library you prefer) with no dependency on an active int...

    I have a collection of marketing PDFs packed with text that must be captured accurately and moved into an editable format. Your first task is straightforward data entry: pull every line of copy from each PDF exactly as it appears—headlines, sub-headings, body text, calls-to-action—then place it into the template I’ll provide (Google Sheet or Word, whichever you prefer). Once the text is in, I’d like a light copy-polish: fix obvious typos, standardise capitalisation and spacing, but keep the original messaging intact. No design work is required; this is purely text extraction and clean-up. Deliverables • Completed spreadsheet / document with all marketing copy organised by page and section • Proof-read, lightly edited text ready for our creative tea...

    I need a small utility that takes the Daily Racing Form in PDF format for a chosen date, scans every race at every track, and pulls four pieces of information for every horse: • horse name • number of starters in that race • second-call position • final time With those values the script must run a straightforward (A + B) / C calculation that I will define exactly once the job begins. When the data for all horses is processed, the program should compile everything into a clean, easy-to-read PDF report. Please build the solution so I can drop in new Racing Form PDFs and generate fresh reports without extra tweaking. A Python workflow that uses libraries such as pdfplumber, Camelot or similar is fine, provided it copes with the occasional formatting quirk that R...

    I am building an NLP-driven application that can read digital copies of paper medical charts and automatically return accurate ICD-10-CM codes. The records you will be working with come from scanned paper documents that have already been converted to text, and they include the full chart—discharge summaries, progress notes, lab results, essentially every page we receive. The tool must achieve three things in a single workflow: 1. Generate ICD-10-CM codes that reflect the latest official guidelines, AHA Coding Clinic updates, and HCC risk-adjustment requirements. 2. Validate that supporting documentation is present and flag any gaps. 3. Suggest concise, guideline-compliant physician queries when the record lacks the specificity needed for proper risk capture. Because this is h...

All DXF files translated would use only 2D (two dimensional) coordinates. The resultant dataset would be in a simple .CSV file format.

    I have well over fifty pages of handwritten notes that need to become clean, error-free digital text. The handwriting is generally legible, but I still expect careful attention to spelling, punctuation, and any abbreviations that appear. No fancy layout is required—just straightforward plain-text output that I can drop into my workflow without additional cleanup. You will receive high-resolution scans of the notes. Please preserve paragraph breaks, headings, and any simple emphasis marks (underlines, asterisks, etc.) exactly as they appear so I can keep the original structure intact.
