Summary

Description

Screenshot of the Distributed Proofreaders website.

The first panel shows the scanned book page. The second panel contains what OCR (optical character recognition) thinks the text reads. However OCR can make mistakes, especially if the original is damaged, not something uncommon with old books. So it will have to be fixed by humans. The last panels contain buttons to move onto next page or stop proofing etc.

The visible book except is from Hildebrand; or, The Days of Queen Elizabeth, An Historic Romance Vol 3 of 3 by anonymous, published 1844. The software is free software released under the GNU GPL.
