OCR for TIFF Images in Catalan (High resolution)

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is the technology used to convert different types of documents, such as scanned paper documents, PDF files, or images captured by a digital camera, into editable and searchable data. It detects text from images or PDFs and transforms it into machine-readable text.

Advantages of OCR:

• Increased Efficiency: OCR automates the process of extracting data from images and documents, significantly speeding up tasks like data entry and document analysis.
• Accuracy: With advancements in machine learning, OCR tools are capable of recognizing text with high precision, reducing the likelihood of errors.
• Cost-Effective: By reducing the need for manual data entry, OCR minimizes labor costs associated with document processing.
• Enhanced Searchability: OCR enables the transformation of scanned documents and images into searchable text, making it easier to find specific information within large datasets.

TIFF, standing for Tagged Image File Format, is a versatile image file format known for its ability to store high-quality images with various features.

TIFF is widely used in professional graphics applications, such as photography, publishing, and medical imaging, due to its ability to:

• Store Lossless or Lossy Data: Supports both lossless compression (maintains image quality) and lossy compression (reduces file size with some quality loss).

• High Color Depth: Handles a wide range of color depths, from basic black and white to complex color palettes, making it suitable for high-fidelity images.

• Layers (Optional): Can store image data in layers, similar to PSD files, but this feature may not be universally supported by all software.

• Metadata: Can embed metadata within the file, such as image creation date, camera settings, and copyright information.

While TIFF offers flexibility and high quality, it can result in larger file sizes compared to some other formats like JPEG. Its versatility makes it a popular choice for professional applications where maintaining image quality and data integrity is crucial.
