Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
What kind of image text can OCR recognize?
It recognizes printed English text best when the image is sharp and well lit. Handwriting and low contrast can reduce accuracy.
Does Image OCR upload my picture?
Recognition runs in the browser after any required model download. Review the extracted text because OCR can confuse similar characters.
