OCR is not perfect. Check the output against the original image, especially names, numbers, tables, and handwritten text. Recognition models are downloaded from a public CDN, but your image is processed locally in your browser and is not sent to our server by this page.

Frequently asked questions about Image to Text Converter
How can I extract text from an image online?
Choose or paste an image, select the language and layout, and click Extract text. Review the result, then copy it or download a TXT file.
Does this image to text converter support multiple languages?
Yes. It provides language models for English and several other languages, including Hindi, Bengali, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and more. The selected language should match the text in the image.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
This page processes the selected image locally in your browser. The OCR engine and language model may be downloaded from a public CDN, but the image is not uploaded to this website by the page code.
Can OCR read handwriting or blurry images?
It may recognize some handwriting, but accuracy is usually lower than with clear printed text. Try a sharper, well-lit image and check all important results manually.
Why does the first text recognition take longer?
The browser may need to download the OCR engine and the language model the first time you use a language. Later runs may be faster if the browser has cached those files.
