JPG is what a phone camera saves, and a photo is how most paper gets into a computer today: a contract on the kitchen table, a receipt, a page of a textbook, a letter from the bank. The photo holds no text, only pixels. Paste it into Word and it stays a picture: nothing in it can be selected, corrected or copied. This app rebuilds the document instead. The words and their positions come from recognition, the structure of the page - headings, columns, tables, captions - is worked out separately, and the page is written again as real text, real tables and real pictures in a Word (.docx) file.
Photos come straight from the phone as they are. Each one is turned upright from the orientation the camera recorded, so a page shot sideways does not come back sideways. Upload several photos at once and they become the pages of one document in the order you added them, so a contract photographed page by page comes back as one contract.
A photo has no paper size, so you choose the sheet. On A4 or Letter each photo is laid whole in the middle of the page, turned to portrait or landscape to match it; "As in the picture" keeps the photo's own proportions.
Because the structure is found before the text is placed, a table in the photo comes back as a table with its own columns, and a form comes back as its captions and values in pairs. The language is worked out from the page itself. Words that recognition is unsure of are read again from the photo rather than guessed, and numbers and identifiers are never rewritten. When the file is ready, one line tells you how many pages were rebuilt, how many words were corrected and how many were left in doubt.
The photo decides how good the result is. Lay the page flat, shoot from straight above in even light, and let the page fill the frame. Blur, shadows, glare, a steep angle or a curled page cost accuracy on every step. The text is rewritten in one standard font, so the page will not match the photo letter for letter, and handwriting is not what recognition is built for. Read the result before you rely on it, and keep your original.
Nothing to install: open the page in any browser, on a phone as well, with no registration and no CAPTCHA. Up to 10 files at a time, 10 MB each. Uploaded files and download links are removed after 24 hours.
OCR reads the words in the photo and where they sit, the structure of the page is worked out separately, and the page is written again as real text, tables and pictures in a .docx.
Files are deleted from our servers after 24 hours, and download links stop working after that.
Drag the JPG files into the white area, or click it to pick them, choose the page size and press CONVERT. When the pages are rebuilt, download the .docx. Up to 10 files at a time, 10 MB each.
Lay the page flat and shoot from straight above, so its edges run parallel to the frame, in even light without shadows or glare, and let the page fill the frame. Blur, a steep angle or a curled page cost accuracy at every step, and so does a JPG saved at low quality: compression smears small print.
Yes. All the photos you upload together become the pages of one document, in the order you uploaded them. Upload them in page order, and the document comes back in page order.
It looks like the document, not like the photo. The layout is kept - headings, columns, tables and pictures stay where they were - but the text is rewritten in one standard font, and the table, shadows and paper around the page are not part of it.
Files are deleted from our servers after 24 hours, and the download links stop working after that. No one else has access to them.
Yes. Open this page in the phone's browser and pick the photos from the gallery. Everything runs on our servers, so any modern browser will do - on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS or Linux.
OCR is built for printed text. Handwritten notes and signatures may come back as garbled words, so check them before you rely on the document.
