About this tool
Extract editable text from a clear image using Tesseract running in a local Web Worker. Language models and the recognition engine are served by this website; the image stays on your device.
How to use
- Choose a clear, upright image containing printed text. The image is processed on your device.
- Select the recognition language and choose automatic page, single text block or single line layout.
- Run recognition, proofread the extracted text, then copy it or download a UTF-8 text file.
Supported models: English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and Japanese, plus mixed English and Simplified Chinese. Input is limited to 10 MB and 8 megapixels; images are scaled to a maximum 2400-pixel long edge. OCR can use substantial browser memory and may misread handwriting, small characters or complex layouts. Proofread the output. The engine confidence score is not a guarantee of accuracy.
