    You'll probably be looking at implementing some kind of OCR to achieve this.

    There's no specific plugins for Umbraco V8 that do this straight out the box, however, there's plenty online such as IronOCR.

    You'd need to integrate things within your own application so it works for you, but essentially it looks like an OCR is what you're after.

    You probabaly dont even need ocr, you just need to crop an image based on contrast ratio

    That's a fair point, depending on how he wishes to implement things :)

    If it's just a snapshot of the receipt for historical purposes, then cropping an image would work just fine.

    If the information on the image needs to be read or handled in some way, then using an OCR would probably fit the bill.
