Convert images to text online for free using OCR. Extract text from photos, screenshots, and scanned images instantly.
Use This Tool Free — No SignupTurn any image into editable text with our free online image to text converter. The tool uses OCR technology to read text from photographs, screenshots, scanned documents, and any other image files. Simply upload an image containing text — a photo of a document, a screenshot of a webpage, a picture of a whiteboard, a scanned receipt — and the OCR engine will recognize and extract all readable text. The converter supports common image formats including PNG, JPG, JPEG, and TIFF. It works best with clearly printed text but can also handle various fonts, sizes, and layouts. The extracted text is presented in a clean format that you can copy to your clipboard, paste into a document, or download as a text file. This tool eliminates the need to manually retype text from images, saving time and reducing errors.
