Videos are a powerful yet popular medium for sharing information or promoting products. It’s difficult to create a professional-looking email as it often requires overlays or captions to convey the message effectively.
However, extracting and aligning text in videos is a hard and time-consuming task, but at the same time with the right tools, it is easier and quicker.
In this article, I will tell you about the secret behind extracting and aligning text in videos. Keep reading till the end as I will also tell you about how to efficiently use these tools for better and quicker results.
The Secret Behind Extracting the Text in Videos
Extracting text from videos can be a useful thing, especially for creating subtitles or repurposing text-heavy visual information. However, sitting down and manually transcribing text from a video is a time-consuming and error-prone task.
Many people are already doing the same thing but in little to no time and with investing no energy. The secret behind the quick extraction of text from the video is using online image-to-text tools. These tools allow you to instantly extract the text from the image with maximum precise results.
Most of the image-to-text tools are powered by OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology, which allows the users to extract the text from the screenshots. These tools are trained to identify handwritten or printed content and convert them into editable text formats.
Several online image-to-text tools are available that can be used to extract text from the videos. A prime example of an efficient and user-friendly tool is the Extract Text from Image tool by Editpad.
The navigation of the tool is quite simple. I have shared a pictorial demonstration below of how the tool extracts the text from videos.
I have taken a screenshot of the desired part of the video in which the text is located that I want to extract. I have uploaded the screenshot on the tool. An attachment is shared below in which the output is shown.
You can see how efficiently the tool has extracted the text from the frame. Most importantly the tool’s ability to maintain clarity of the original text ensures that extracted text is error-free and immediate to use. However, to be on the safe side it is recommended to review the extracted text once to ensure that no mistakes are made, and no errors are left unattended.
Moreover, it only took me a few seconds to upload the image and get the text extracted which shows that the tool is user-friendly, and you do not need to learn any technical expertise to operate this tool.
The Secret Behind Aligning the Text in Videos
Once you have extracted the text the next step is to align the text. The issue occurs when the text does not align and sometimes shifts to the next line because of page wrap-ups or screen size issues.
Achieving precise alignments can be tricky most of the time especially when it comes to dealing with subtitles and captions.
It is where an invisible character tool is a lifesaver. Invisible characters are blank spaces that do not appear on the screen but are present at the back end of the screen. These characters help you to fine-tune the alignment of the text without affecting its appearance.
Several online tools and web-based toolkits are available to get these invisible characters. The use of these characters in your text is quite simple. You simply have to copy and paste them into your text wherever you want and that’s it.
A prime example of a user-friendly and efficient invisible character tool is the invisible character tool by Editpad.
The navigation and working of the tool are simple. You have to copy the text using your preferred method and paste that where you feel alignment adjustments are needed in the text.
You can see that the tool gives two different and easy methods to copy invisible characters. Also, to ensure that the invisible characters get copied to the clipboard there is a test given below for both methods.
You can simply copy the invisible characters and paste them where you think the alignment needs adjustment.
