What is Image to Text (OCR)?

Image to Text conversion, also known as OCR (Optical Character Recognition), is a technology that examines the pixels in an image and identifies text characters.

This tool allows you to upload pictures of documents, receipts, screenshots, or book pages and convert the visual data into editable digital text. It supports multiple languages and formats like JPG, PNG, and WEBP.

Common Use Cases

OCR technology can be incredibly useful for various tasks:

• Digitize Documents: Quickly turn physical papers into digital notes without manual typing.
• Data Entry Automation: Extract data from invoices, receipts, and forms to save time and reduce errors.
• Edit Read-Only Content: Extract text from screenshots, PDFs, or infographics to edit or repurpose the content.
• Translation & Accessibility: Convert image text to a format that can be easily translated or read aloud by screen readers.

Troubleshooting OCR Issues

If the extracted text isn't accurate, try these tips:

• Image Quality: Ensure the image is clear, well-lit, and not blurry. Higher resolution images yield better results.
• Orientation: Make sure the text in the image is right-side up. Rotate the image if necessary before uploading.
• Language Selection: Verify that you have entered the correct language code (e.g., 'eng' for English, 'fra' for French).
• Font Clarity: OCR works best with standard, printed fonts. Handwriting or decorative fonts may result in errors.
