Extract text from GIF Image
Hi Experts,
I wish to copy the text appears in the image. Is there any editor available for this. I presume that there must be some editor which allows us to copy all the text inside the image and copy it to note pad or wordpad. Please let me know this ASAP.
Thanks,

I dont think it is possible.
I think you have to use some kind of OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software.
You can either search EE and see if you can find something

or use google.

Most of the OCR software cost money but there are some that are free.

I request the community experts to delete this question
Why? We answered your question.
because he is greedy.
plus, there's a tag in GIF specification that allows to add text as text. unfortunately, I've never saw that in action.

P.S.: In my experience, even if a q-n was not answered, it is better to split points between people who spent their time just trying. Think of your future questions, and how many people will get back to you then ;)
Sometimes "you cant" is the correct, and ONLY, answer.
