Practical answer
Extract Text From an Image
To extract text from an image, open the Image to Text Converter, add a JPG, PNG, or WEBP image, choose Extract text, then edit, copy all, or download the combined text as a .txt file.
Use a single image or a small image queue
- Choose an image, drag it onto the page, or paste a copied screenshot with Ctrl+V.
- Add more images if you need them. The page keeps the visible queue order.
- Select Extract text. Each queued image is read in order and its result is placed in one editable text area.
- Correct any recognition mistakes, then use Copy all or Download .txt.
What happens to the image
This tool performs recognition in the browser. Your selected image files are not uploaded to an application server, and the page does not keep an image history. The OCR engine files are delivered with this site when the tool needs them.
What this page supports
The current tool accepts JPG, PNG, and WEBP image files and uses its English OCR model. It is intended for visible English text. Review the editable result before reusing it, especially for small, blurred, decorative, or handwritten text.
