Rikaichan on images

[rajs20]

Hi,

Someone recommended Rikaichan to me recently and I love it since I can read any text-based Japanese webpage without spending hours looking up words in a dictionary.

Does anyone know any way to use Rikaichan (or some other tool) to read scanned images of Japanese though? (i.e. not in text format)

Thanks!

rikaichan is only capable of reading text. You need to figure out the characters for the word, then type them into a text box in your browser, then you can scan them with rikaichan.

Thanks you for your reply, that makes sense.
