1Step-by-Step Guide

Select a clear photo or scan containing text. Supports JPG, PNG, and more.

Choose the language of the text in the image (English, Hindi, Spanish, etc.) for better accuracy.

Click 'Extract Text'. The browser will process the image and identify characters locally.

Review the extracted text in our built-in editor, then copy it or download as a .txt file.

For clear, high-contrast text, the accuracy is extremely high. Scanned documents or clear photos work best.

Our current OCR tool works on images. To extract from a PDF, convert it to images first using our PDF to Image tool.
