OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition. Optical character recognition is the mechanical or electronic translation of images of handwritten, typewritten or printed text (usually captured by a scanner) into machine-editable text. OCR-A or OCR-B fonts are used wherever these error-free machine-readable symbols are required.
First patented in Germany in 1929, OCR-A symbols have a squared-off, "geometric" look. OCR-B was designed in 1968 as the European counterpart to OCR-A. The United States Postal Service has been using OCR machines to sort mail since 1965, and many industry specifications call for an OCR-A or OCR-B font.
