## Utility:

This software can convert text in image into editable .docx file. Any PNG or JPEG image with text in it can be used to generate a .docx file.

## Installation and Implementation:

- The Software has been divided into Frontend and Backend and can be used seperately in two different servers.

- In Backend the required Python packages can be installed using the `requirements.txt` file
- `sudo pip install -r requirements.txt`

- In linux enviornment you may need to install additional package `sudo apt install tesseract-ocr -y`
- Set the `.env` mentioning the address of the frontend (.env.example provided)
- Run the `aapi.py` script located in `Backend/API`
- send a `GET` request to `/users` endpoint. It should return `works`. That means it's working.

- Frontend Setup: Change the `Frontend/assets/js/custom.js` Backend URL to the url of the backend server.
