About The Image to Text Converter
Image to Text Converter uses OCR to extract readable text from screenshots, scans, photos, and other image files. It helps turn visible text into copyable text you can edit, search, quote, or save as a TXT file.
The OCR workflow runs in your browser after the OCR resources load. Accuracy depends on the clarity, contrast, language, and layout of the source image.
How to Extract Text from Images Online
- Choose an image file that contains clear and readable text.
- Open more options if you need the language selector.
- Run OCR to extract text from the image.
- Review the extracted text for accuracy and make any necessary corrections.
- Download the TXT output when you need a local copy.
Choosing Options Correctly
OCR language:
Use English for normal printed English text. English + OSD can help with orientation/script detection but may be slower.
Image quality:
Use straight, high-contrast images with readable fonts. Blur, shadows, handwriting, stamps, and tiny text can reduce accuracy.
Common Use Cases
- Extracting text from screenshots, scanned documents, receipts, or labels.
- Moving printed notes into an editable document.
- Pulling quotes or excerpts from images for research or support tickets.
Quick FAQ
Is my original image changed?
No. OCR reads the image and outputs text separately.
Are images uploaded?
No. OCR is designed to run in the browser after the recognition engine loads.
Will OCR be perfect?
No. Accuracy depends on image sharpness, contrast, language, layout, font, and background noise.
How do I improve OCR results?
Use a high-resolution image, crop to the text area, straighten the page, and avoid glare or heavy compression.
