Ruriko Maiya Kashiwazaki Kusugawa (ID: 0000008bb0bed7e4) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 02/23/2018 Demasiado complicado para pasar el texto de una imagen a texto editable. En primera porque hay que registrarse. Segundo, que no entiende todo el idioma, ni todo el texto. Tercero porque hay que elegir de donde tienes la imagen, local o cloud. Existen otras extenciones que hacen lo mismo directo desde el navegador y trabajan con la imagen del navegador, sin descargar nada. Si se va a trabajar con imagenes locales es mejor abbyy finereader.
