How to use image to text
- Choose a PNG, JPEG or WebP under 10 MB and 16 megapixels.
- Select English, Hindi or both and a page layout preset. The engine downloads locally hosted language data.
- Recognize text, review confidence and word boxes, edit the result and export TXT. TSV and hOCR exports retain the original engine recognition, not later text edits.
A simple example
A clear screenshot of printed text generally works better than a tilted photo. Crop out unrelated areas before recognition.
What to keep in mind
OCR can misread names, digits, tables and handwriting. Confidence is an engine estimate, not a guarantee. Word overlays display up to 2000 words. Browser memory varies by device; recognition is limited to two minutes. Cancellation terminates the worker. Exports are TXT, TSV and hOCR; this tool does not create a searchable PDF.
Good questions. Clear answers.
Where is my image processed?
In a browser worker. Language models are downloaded from this site; the image is never uploaded.
Is the result a Word document?
No. This tool exports plain text and does not preserve document layout.
