Users can choose the engine flexibly according to the specific recognition task, greatly improving the recognition success rate and accuracy.
2. Convenient screenshot recognition
   The tool provides a convenient screenshot recognition function. In daily office or study, when we encounter text that cannot be directly copied on web pages, documents and other interfaces, we only need to press the specified shortcut key to evoke the screenshot recognition window, box the text area that needs to be recognized, and then quickly obtain the recognition results. This instantaneous operation greatly improves the efficiency of information access, especially suitable for dealing with fragmented text information.
