A character recognition device capable of performing accurate character recognition even when positions of characters change or adjacent characters contact or overlap each other. The device includes a character recognition image data creating unit for extracting character string image data from image data generated by using an imaging modality and repeatedly shifting the character string image in a character string direction one pixel by one pixel to create plural kinds of character string image data; and a character recognition processing unit for separating character images from each character string image to obtain character pattern data representing the separated character images, performing character recognition by using the obtained character pattern data, and calculating certainty factors based on an agreement rate of recognition results to determine a recognition result character string based on the certainty factors with respect to the plural kinds of character string image data.
