How to Use the Image to Text Converter

What is OCR?

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is a technology that converts different types of documents, such as scanned paper documents, PDF files or images captured by a digital camera into editable and searchable data. This tool uses advanced OCR algorithms to extract text from your images with high accuracy.

Uploading Your Image

  1. Click on the upload area or drag and drop your image file
  2. Supported formats include JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and WebP
  3. Preview your image to ensure it's clear and readable
  4. For best results, use high-resolution images with clear text

Tips for Better Results:

• Use images with good contrast between text and background

• Ensure text is horizontal and not skewed

• Higher resolution images generally produce better results

Extracting Text

  1. After uploading your image, click the "Extract Text" button
  2. Wait for the OCR processing to complete
  3. Review the extracted text in the result area
  4. Copy the text or make any necessary corrections

Note:

The accuracy of text extraction depends on image quality, text clarity, and language. For documents with complex layouts or handwritten text, results may vary.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What image formats are supported?

Our image to text converter supports all major image formats including JPG/JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and WebP. For best results, we recommend using PNG or JPG formats with high resolution and clear text visibility.

How accurate is the text extraction?

The accuracy depends on several factors including image quality, text clarity, font type, and language. For printed text on clear backgrounds, accuracy can be very high (95%+). Handwritten text or poor quality images may have lower accuracy rates.

What is the maximum file size I can upload?

The maximum file size is typically 10MB per image. For very large files, consider compressing the image while maintaining readability. Most smartphone photos and scanned documents are well within this limit.

Is my uploaded image stored on your servers?

No, your images are processed locally in your browser and are not uploaded to our servers. This ensures your privacy and security. The OCR processing happens entirely on your device using web-based OCR technology.
