How to Convert a Photo to Text

Use a clear, well-lit photo and save the recognized wording as editable text.

1

Take a clear photo

Keep the camera parallel to the text, avoid glare and shadows, and include the full lines you want to read.

2

Upload and choose Content extraction

Save the photo as JPG, PNG, WebP, or BMP and upload it. Choose Markdown or plain text for the extracted text blocks.

3

Process and review the wording

Click Process files. Check names, numbers, line order, and any words near folds, shadows, or handwriting.

4

Save text for your next task

Copy the result or download TXT or Markdown, then make corrections in your document editor.

Your Photo Has the Words You Need to Reuse

A camera captures a page quickly, but the text still needs to reach your notes or document.

Pages photographed at an angle
Perspective can squeeze letter shapes and make lines harder to read.
Glare or shadows on the text
A reflection on a label or a shadow over the page can hide words and numbers.
Photos to transcribe
Copying an instruction, passage, or label by hand adds another step to your work.
