"GNU Ocrad is an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) program based on a feature extraction method.
It reads images in pbm (bitmap), pgm (greyscale) or ppm (color) formats and produces text in byte (8-bit) or UTF-8 formats.
The pbm, pgm and ppm formats are collectively known as pnm.
Ocrad includes a layout analyser able to separate the columns or blocks of text normally found on printed pages."
