I usually go through Google translate and the camera symbol therein. You can also continue to open a picture file. I often take the effort to take a picture, crop to the desired text and then feed to Google translate. It also offers to copy the recognized Thai text. There is an app called "SayHi" which often gives better results in translation. Have not used it with OCR so far (seems not provided).

jojothai Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Try this site https://www.newocr.com/ OCR is generally good for Thai, but you will need to proof read. I dont know how good the translation is. I capture the thai text and use google and /or word document translate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibjoe Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and Translators are two different things, though they can be combined. Google shows a lot of Thai OCR hits, but I haven't had much luck with any of them yet. Recommendations appreciated. What I do now is view the image and manually type the text in my computer (I have Thai language pack installed on my Windows computer, and I learned where the Thai keys are on my English keyboard). After I have the Thai characters entered as text, I can copy that to Google Translate, which is not optimal, as Thai is a difficult language to translate to English correctly.

Udon Tom Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 I find Google Translate to work for me for Thai into English, but my Thai wife tells me that English to Thai is not accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted July 28, 2023 Author Share Posted July 28, 2023 I've managed without for this long, but just thinking about menus and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradiston Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Google Lens. Use it all the time. When you view a photo in Google photos, it's down the bottom between "edit" and "delete". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
