Copy text from an image

Getting productive with TextSniper

TextSniper works similar to screenshots: First, you define the area to capture and then, any text within that area will be copied to your clipboard.

TextSniper works similar to screenshots: Use a shortcut to enable the tool and drag an area you'd like to copy text from. As a result, the text within the selected area will be copied to your clipboard. It's that simple.

Next time you find yourself manually typing text from a picture, you know there's a better way.
