Image to Text Converter

What is Image to Text Converter?

The Image to Text Converter is an advanced web tool that uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to extract text from images, screenshots, scanned documents, and photos. This powerful tool can recognize text in multiple languages and convert it into editable digital text. Whether you need to extract text from a screenshot, digitize printed documents, or copy text from an image, this tool provides a quick and efficient solution. The converter supports various image formats including JPG, PNG, BMP, and GIF, making it perfect for students, professionals, and anyone who needs to work with text contained in images.

How This Tool Works?

This Image to Text Converter utilizes Tesseract.js, a JavaScript implementation of the Tesseract OCR engine originally developed by Google. When you upload an image, the tool processes it directly in your browser without sending your data to external servers, ensuring privacy and security. The OCR engine analyzes the image pixel by pixel, identifies character patterns, and converts them into machine-readable text. The process involves several stages including image preprocessing (grayscale conversion, noise reduction), text detection, character recognition, and post-processing to improve accuracy. The tool provides real-time progress updates and allows you to select the language of the text for improved recognition accuracy.
