How to get text from a picture

  1. Choose one or more pictures.
  2. Tick the language (or languages) of the text.
  3. Press Read the text, then copy it, download it, or save a searchable PDF.

For best results

  • Sharp, straight and well-lit pictures read best.
  • Pictures that are sideways or upside down are detected and read the right way.
  • Printed text works much better than handwriting, which is usually not recognized.
  • Small text in small screenshots is enlarged before reading.

Good to know

  • Languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Hindi and Chinese (Simplified).
  • The text recognition engine is Tesseract, the open-source OCR engine, running in your browser. The first time, the engine and each language you choose (1–4 MB each) take a moment to download.
  • Text recognition is never perfect: check names and numbers that matter.
  • The searchable PDF shows your pictures with invisible text on top, so you can search and copy it.
