Is there a way to "read" a gif/jpeg in C#

I need to read text from gif/jpeg that have a combination of text and images. The hope is that all the gifs are in a standard format for me to use regex (maybe?) to get text out of an image.

Any input on this is really appreciated.

This is called Optical Character Recognition (OCR). There are a few libraries referenced in this question:
