Free Image to Text (OCR)

Why use this Image to Text tool?

• Private by design: OCR runs locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to a server.
• Multi-language OCR: Works with English, Hindi and other languages through Tesseract trained data.
• Multiple images at once: Add several images and combine the results into one text output.
• Fast & simple: No signup, no watermark, and you can download everything as a plain .txt file.

How to convert an image to text

1. Click Browse Images (or drag & drop) to add JPG, PNG or WebP files.
2. Choose the OCR Language that matches your document (e.g., English, Hindi or both).
3. Press Extract Text. A small progress bar will show while OCR is running.
4. Once done, copy the text or click Download .txt to save it.

For PDFs, export each page as an image first and then use those images here.

Supported languages

At the moment this tool is set up for English (eng), Hindi (hin), English+Hindi, Spanish (spa) and French (fra). Tesseract.js also supports many other languages. If you’re a developer, you can extend this setup by including more language codes and the matching trained data.

Privacy & security

Everything happens inside your browser using WebAssembly. Images are processed in memory and are not uploaded to an external server. That makes this a good option for personal notes, client documents and other sensitive files.

Troubleshooting & accuracy tips

• Use sharp, high-contrast images (300+ DPI scans work best).
• Crop out borders/backgrounds and rotate the page upright before running OCR.
• Pick the correct language or language combination for mixed-script documents.
• Avoid heavy compression – PNG or good-quality JPG usually works better than a tiny, over-compressed file.
