Description changed to:
Hi All,

I want to extract text from images for automating a software.
The text in the images is also in image format and cannot be selected.

Is there some other way to extract text from image(without selecting and
copying to clipboard)

Basically i want to design a script in which sikuli clicks by specifing
texts rather than images.

For Example click1("Media")
should click anywhere on screen where Media is written

I opened Paint and wrote "HELLO WORLD" and then in Sikuli i wrote click("HELLO")
it said 
that click failed because Sikuli cannot find HELLO on the screen

The same happened even for WORDPAD, where HELLO WORLD was text(and not image as in Paint)
I am using the RC3 build

Any Help would be greatly admired!!!
