Unlocking Information with OCR

Digital transformation often involves converting physical or static documents into editable formats. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is the technology that makes this possible. Our Image to Text Converter uses advanced OCR engines to 'read' the text within your images, PDFs, or photos and convert it into selectable, copyable digital text. This eliminates the need for manual data entry, saving hours of tedious work.

Why OCR is a Game Changer

The use cases for OCR are vast and touch almost every professional field:

• Digitizing Invoices: Accounts teams can quickly extract billing details from scanned invoices.
• Study Notes: Students can take a photo of a textbook or whiteboard and get the text for their summaries.
• Translation: Convert a menu or sign in a foreign language to text, making it easy to paste into a translator.

How to Use the OCR Tool

1. Upload Image: Select the photo or screenshot that contains the text.
2. Process: The system analyzes the image. Higher resolution images with clear fonts yield the best results.
3. Copy Text: Once the extraction is complete, the text appears in a box for you to copy or download.

Advantages and Limitations

Advantages:

• Supports multiple languages and fonts.
• Greatly reduces errors compared to manual retyping.

Limitations:

• Handwritten notes can be difficult for the AI to interpret accurately.
• Low-quality or blurry images may result in 'gibberish' or missing characters.
