  •  OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition which is used to read characters of special type font that are printed on conventional paper with conventional ink. 
  •  On the other hand, OMR stands for Optical Mark Recognition which is used to transcribe marks that are marked with a dark pencil or ink on a special pre-printed form (e.g. answer sheet of a multiple choice question paper where a choice of answer can be reflected by shading the appropriate box).
