Scanned Document to Text
Convert a scanned document image into editable text with OCR. If your scan is saved as a JPG, PNG, or WEBP file, you can upload it and copy or download the extracted text.
When this is useful
- Making a scanned letter easier to quote or edit.
- Creating a text draft from an archived printed document.
- Pulling information from a scanned application, notice, or form.
How to get better results
- Scan at a readable resolution and use a flat, clean page.
- Keep the document straight and remove dark borders created by the scanner.
- Process multi-page documents one image at a time and review each output.
What to expect
The tool accepts image files, not PDF uploads. Export a scanned PDF page as a JPG, PNG, or WEBP image before using this converter.
