Screen Translator
Introduction
This software allows you to translate any text on screen. Basically it is a combination of screen capture, OCR and translation tools.
Installation
Windows: download archive from github releases page, extract it and run .exe file.
If the app fails to start with missing dll's error then install vs_redist*.exe from the release archive.
If you have any update errors related to SSL/TLS you should also install or repair vcredist 2010 (from the Microsoft website).
Linux: download .AppImage file from github releases, make executable (chmod +x <file>) and run it.
OS X: currently not supported.
Setup
Start the app, open the updates page of the settings window and install required recognition languages, translators and, optionally, hunspell dictionaries.
After languages/translators installation set default recognition and
translation languages, enable some (or all) translators
and the translate text setting if needed.
Usage
- Run program (note that it doesn't have main window).
- Press capture hotkey.
- Select region on screen. Customize it if needed.
- Get translation of recognized text.
