Paginaut

Free Screenshot & Text Toolkit: viewport, full-page and region capture, OCR, QR reader, character count, transliteration, export.

Paginaut is a productivity extension that combines screenshot tools and text tools in one lightweight package. ### Screenshot tools - Capture current screen (viewport) - **Full page (default):** scroll the tab and stitch viewport screenshots (no debugger); optional **legacy full page** via Chrome DevTools Protocol when enabled in Options - Very tall pages may save as multiple numbered PNGs to Downloads with an in-extension preview (multipart mode) - Capture selected region - Save as PNG, JPG, or WEBP - Copy image directly to clipboard ### Text tools - **Text Grab (OCR)** from a selected screen region (same drag-to-select flow as region capture) - **QR code reader:** select a region that contains a QR code; decode runs locally with bundled **jsQR**; result opens in a dedicated window with **Copy** and **Save .txt** (optional feature flag in Options, like OCR) - **Character count:** optional clipboard paste into an editor with live stats (words, characters, paragraphs, lines, whitespace breakdown, UTF-8 length, approximate reading time); toggle in Options - Local OCR flow using bundled assets (Tesseract) - Save extracted / decoded text as .txt - Copy extracted / decoded text to clipboard ### Region selection UX - For **region capture**, **Text Grab**, and **QR code reader**, the in-page overlay includes the top hint bar (**Capture** / **Cancel**) plus **confirm (✓)** and **cancel (✕)** controls anchored to the bottom-right of the selection box ### Transliteration - Convert between Latin and Cyrillic scripts - Automatic script detection mode - Manual target script selection ### Customization - **Popup layout:** drag-and-drop tool order in Options (Favorites, Screenshot, Text columns) with the same per-tool enable/disable checkboxes as before - Feature flags in Options page (enable/disable each major feature) - UI localization (English and Serbian) - Language override in Options (Auto/browser, English, Serbian) ### Privacy-first behavior - Processing is performed locally inside the extension (full page defaults to **scroll-based stitching**; optional legacy CDP path — **no cloud screenshot service**) - The extension’s features do not require internet for their own operation (opening a live website is separate) - User explicitly triggers all capture and processing actions
