About OCR Technology

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology allows you to extract text from images automatically. Our tool uses advanced OCR algorithms to recognize characters in various languages with high accuracy.

Common Uses for OCR:

  • Extract text from scanned documents
  • Convert printed books to editable text
  • Digitize handwritten notes (with limitations)
  • Extract data from receipts or invoices
  • Make image-based PDFs searchable

Tips for Better OCR Results:

  • Use clear, high-resolution images
  • Ensure proper lighting with good contrast
  • Select the correct language for your text
  • Consider enabling image enhancement for poor quality images
