Free PDF & Image to Text (OCR)
Upload a PDF or image and extract text exactly as it appears. No AI rewriting, no autocorrect, just accurate text extraction. Your files stay on your device.
1. Upload
Click or drop files herePDF, JPG, PNG, WEBP, BMP — multiple files allowed
2. Your text
Digital PDFs (text you can select) are extracted directly from the file's own text, which is exact. Scanned PDFs and photos are read with the Tesseract OCR engine; accuracy depends on scan quality, so no OCR can promise 100% — always proof-read important documents.
3. Translate (optional)
Need the text in another language? Open the free translator in a new tab. Your extracted text is sent over automatically, and nothing leaves your device.
