Not sure how to reproduce this one.
It can take Capture2Text several seconds to OCR such a large amount of text. Try waiting longer before attempting to paste into your notes application. A progress bar (or something similar) might be useful but is not currently implemented.

Process to specify screen rectangle?
Capture2Text_CLI.exe is for command line usage only. There is no method provided by Capture2Text to preset the capture box.
Capture2Text Capture Box & Preview stop displaying after running for extended periods.
Hopefully fixed in v4.6.3.
${timestamp} variable in format option no longer works since version 4.6.0
Fixed in v4.6.3. Thanks.
Icon tooltip on hover
In v4.6.3 added "Capture2Text - Language" tooltip format. For languages that support vertical text, added "Capture2Text - Language - Orientation" tooltip format.
OCR error yielding a double byte unicode
In v4.6.3, replaced Unicode single quote (’) with an ASCII single quote ('). Also replaced (“) and (”) with (").
Added note to the Hotkeys settings page regarding the proper method to disable hotkeys per your suggestion.
When using the option --output-file-append, the BOM is also added to an existing nonempty file
Ended up removing BOM altogether in v4.6.3.

Fixed in v4.6.3.
Crash when selecting "Open file..." on versions 8.3 and higher
Perfect, thanks! The issue is now fixed in version 9.7. Please let me know if you encounter any more difficulties.
Crash when selecting "Open file..." on versions 8.3 and higher
Thanks. Not sure what the exact cause of the crash is, but narrowing it down to version 8.3 certainly helps. You have probably already tried, but sometimes completely uninstalling and then reinstalling the app helps. If you know how to get a logcat of the exception, feel free to attached it. If not, no worries, it is kind of involved and probably not worth your time to learn. In the next future version I will place some exception handlers around the areas of code that the exception likely occurs,...
Issue is fixed in version 9.6.

Thanks. I can now reproduce the issue.
I am unable to reproduce the issue. Which dictionary were you using?

Thanks for letting me know.
Word list isn't working; also PDF support
Crash when sending file to app
This may be fixed in version 8.1. I don't have "calibre companion", so I'm not sure though.
Added basic PDF support in version 8.0. Essentially, pages are just converted to images, so don't expect things such as links to work.
Thanks for sharing the solution.
Image quality greatly reduces when using OCR
Thanks, very interesting. I'll be on the lookout for possible causes.

Flip navigation controls to adapt them to current reading direction?
Image quality greatly reduces when using OCR
I'm not sure what would be causing this issue for you as the page display functionality and the OCR functionality are separate in the code. Do you see this issue for all files? Which non-default settings are you using? Does this issue appear in older versions, such as v6.6
Should be fixed in version 7.3. Let me know.
Should be fixed now. Let me know.
Critical Bug in 7.0: Filesystem inaccessible
That does sound really annoying. I'll fix it in the next version.
I just uploaded version 7.1 which may help to solve the issue. I don't have permissions to display root with the SDK version I'm building against, and I don't have any rooted devices to test with, but I was able to add a "mnt" folder (which maps to "/mnt") and a "shared" folder (which maps to "/mnt/shared"). They should be displayed in the folder shown in Reader_7.0_d.png. On my newer devices I can see the "mnt" folder, but on my older devices I cannot. Let me know if that helps.
Thanks for the detailed report, I'll take a look.
From the version 7.0 version history: ● Fixed bug where nothing was saved when "Send action" was set to "Word List Save File" (Ticket #5). ● Added "Entire Selection" to the Word List Save File Format option (Ticket #5). ● Word List Save File Format option now uses check boxes (Ticket #5).
It appears that the RAR library that the project uses does not support the newer RAR 5 format. Unfortunately the author of the library has no current plans to update it to support RAR 5.
I belive that I have found the cause of the issue. The workaround for now is to set the "Send action" to "Show list (default)". Then after pressing "Send", select "Word list save file". Yes, I will also add "Sentence/Entire Selection [tab] Expression".
Rar files won't open
I'll look into it.
Word list isn't working; also PDF support
1) So far I am unable to reproduce this. I can add your suggestion for exporting "Sentence/Entire Selection [tab] Expression [tab] Reading [tab] Definition" to the next version though. 2) This one would require more effort and I don't personally use PFDs. Perhaps someday though.
In the Windows start menu, place a shortcut to Capture2Text.exe in the "Startup" folder.

Red Text Problems
Cannot reproduce. I get "Sample Preview Text" from the text in that image.
Thanks for that information.
Unfortunately I am unable to reproduce the issue at this time.
Thank you for providing a detailed description of the issue. The problem is that Capture2Text is unable to clean the rather busy background of that image resulting in a lot of noise that causes OCR to struggle. To see this for yourself, use the --debug and look at the "debug_enhanced.png" image that gets generated. Capture2Text works best for less complex images. In addition, Capture2Text is optimized for 96 DPI, so when attempting to OCR an image scanned with a high DPI, it may help to reduce the...
1) Right-click Capture2Text.exe and choose "Create shortcut". 2) Right-click the shortcut and choose "Properties". 3) Click on the Shortcut tab if it is not already selected. 4) In the "Target:" textbox, add " --portable" to the end. So the full target might be something like "C:\Capture2Text\Capture2Text.exe --portable" 5) Click OK 6) Double-click the shortcut to open Capture2Text using the "--portable" option.
Paragraph Capture?
I think paragraph capture using lasso/box-select/paintbrush-select approach is doable.
Elvis, can you try running using the --portable option and report if it works any better? Capture2Text.exe --portable

Thanks for the additional information. Perhaps in the future I can add some error logging to help solve this issue.
Suggestion - CLI clipboard image to clipboard text
Save the clipboard image to a file first and then use Capture2Text_CLI.exe to OCR it.

Does it give you any error message? Is it still running in Task Manager? Which version of Windows?
After you have OCR'd a region once with the normal "Start OCR Capture" hotkey (Win+Q), you may use the "Re-Capture Last" hotkey (Win+R) to OCR the same region again.
