What happens when you use Image to Text (OCR)
Upload one image (JPG, PNG, or WebP, max 5MB) and click Extract Text. We run OCR (optical character recognition) and return the text as plain text. Your image is not stored and is deleted after processing. OCR extracts text from photos, screenshots, and scanned documents so you can digitize printed text, copy content from images, or make image content searchable. English-only processing.
Half the time people need Image to Word right after Image to Text (OCR)—same workflow, different output.
Two writes worth bookmarking: OCR from screenshots, receipts, and bad photos and when you are batching pages first.
If this isn’t the last stop, people often chain Image to Word (OCR) then Image to PDF —same file, different headache.
When Image to Text (OCR) is the right call
- When you need to copy text from a photo or screenshot
- When digitizing printed or handwritten text from a scan

- Extraction fails or text is wrong: Use a clear, high-contrast image under 5MB. Handwriting and low-quality scans may have errors.
- Wrong language or garbled text: This tool supports English only. For other languages, use a tool that supports your language.
- Usage limit reached: Sign in for a higher daily limit. Limits reset at midnight.
