How to Extract Text from Images (OCR)

Tool location: /img/extract-text

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) reads text from images, allowing you to extract and copy text from photos, screenshots, scanned documents, and more. Our AI-powered OCR supports multiple languages and processes everything locally in your browser.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Upload Your Image

Click "Select Image" or drag and drop your image file. Clear, high-contrast text works best.

Step 2: Select Language (Optional)

Choose the language of the text in your image:

English (default)
Korean
Japanese
Chinese (Simplified)
And more...

Step 3: Wait for OCR Processing

The AI analyzes your image:

First use downloads language data (varies by language)
Processing time depends on image size and text amount
Progress indicator shows current status

Step 4: Review Extracted Text

The recognized text appears in a text area. Review for accuracy and make any needed corrections.

Step 5: Copy or Download

Copy the text to clipboard for pasting elsewhere, or download as a text file.

Pro Tips

Higher resolution images produce better OCR results.
Ensure text is clear, well-lit, and properly oriented.
Select the correct language for best accuracy.
Straight text (not rotated or skewed) is recognized more accurately.
For scanned documents, scan at 300 DPI or higher.
Handwritten text may not be recognized well - printed text works best.

Important Notes

Handwritten text recognition is limited - works best with printed/typed text.

Very small, blurry, or low-contrast text may not be recognized.

First use requires downloading language data (size varies by language).

Complex layouts (multiple columns, tables) may not maintain perfect formatting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How accurate is the OCR?

A: Accuracy depends on image quality. Clear, high-resolution images with printed text typically achieve 90%+ accuracy. Poor quality, handwritten, or unusual fonts may have lower accuracy.

Q: Why is the first use slow?

A: OCR requires downloading language-specific data (typically 1-10MB depending on language). This is cached after the first use.

Q: Can it read handwritten text?

A: OCR is optimized for printed/typed text. Handwritten text may be partially recognized but results vary significantly based on handwriting clarity.

Q: What languages are supported?

A: The tool supports many languages including English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and major European languages. Select your language before processing for best results.

Q: Why is some text missing or wrong?

A: Low image quality, unusual fonts, skewed text, or poor contrast can cause recognition errors. Try using a higher quality image with clear, straight text.

Q: Is my image uploaded anywhere?

A: No. All OCR processing happens locally in your browser. Your images remain completely private on your device.
