This paper presents an innovative design for Optical Character Recognition (OCR) from text images by using the Template Matching method.OCR is an important research area and one of the most successful applications of technology in the field of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence.OCR provides full alphanumeric visualization of printed and handwritten characters by scanning text images and converts it into a corresponding editable text document. The main objective of this system prototype is to develop a prototype for the OCR system and to implement The Template Matching algorithm for provoking the system prototype. In this paper, we took alphabet (A-Z and a-z), and numbers (0-1), grayscale images, bitmap image format were used and recognized the alphabet and numbers by comparing between two images. Besides, we checked accuracy for different fonts of alphabet and numbers. Here we used Matlab R2018a software for the proper implementation of the system.
