Check whether the image style is supported

Compare one cropped section with the two examples on the homepage. If it looks different, send one screenshot on WhatsApp before processing the complete folder.

Create one TXT for each image

Convert the selected folder and maintain the original filenames. Avoid combining unrelated pages into one TXT file.

Correct recognition differences

Cursive characters can look similar, so compare every word with the original image. Focus Mode helps keep the current line visible during correction.

Complete the selected Notepad file

Use the prepared TXT in the workflow for Notepad RTX++, Notepad Plus, Notebook, StartTXT or Pixcel.
