Question 1

How does the OCR tool work?

Accepted Answer

The tool uses Tesseract.js, an open-source OCR engine compiled to WebAssembly. When you upload an image, it runs entirely in your browser — no data is sent to any server — and recognizes text in 100+ languages.

Question 2

Which image formats are supported?

Accepted Answer

You can upload JPG, PNG, WebP, BMP, GIF and most other browser-supported image formats. For best results use clear, high-resolution images with good contrast between text and background.

Question 3

Is my image data private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All OCR processing happens locally in your browser using Tesseract.js. Your images never leave your device and are not uploaded to any server.

Question 4

Which languages are supported?

Accepted Answer

100+ languages including English, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Hindi, Russian, Portuguese and many more. Language packs are downloaded on demand.
