FAQs
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. The image and extracted text stay in your browser during processing.
Can I take a photo instead of uploading one?
Yes, when camera access is available. The photo is captured and processed in your browser, and you can still choose an existing JPG, JPEG, PNG, or WebP image.
Which language does the tool recognize?
The tool currently recognizes printed English text. It does not automatically detect or load other languages.
Can it read handwriting?
The tool is designed for printed text. Handwriting results may be incomplete or inaccurate.
What should I do if no text is found?
Rotate the image upright and try a sharper image with larger text and stronger contrast.
Should I check the text before using it?
Yes. OCR can add, omit, or misread characters, especially in noisy or low-contrast images, so compare important text with the original.
