How to use the OCR Image to Text

1

Load your media

Drag a file onto the drop zone or use the file picker. A preview confirms the dimensions and format that were detected.

2

Adjust the output

Set quality, size or format options. The preview updates immediately so you can judge the result before exporting.

3

Export the result

Download the processed file. Because everything runs locally, processing speed depends on your device rather than a remote queue.

What OCR Image to Text is for

Run optical character recognition directly in your browser with an on-demand OCR engine. Drop in a photo of a receipt, slide or page and copy the recognised text.

The OCR Image to Text is part of the Image & Video collection on ToolFlow. It is designed for one concrete job: extract text from screenshots and scans. Everything runs client-side, so you can use it with sensitive material without creating a copy on someone else's server.

Common use cases

  • Digitise a printed note
  • Copy text from a screenshot
  • Index scanned invoices

Good to know

  • No account is required, and there is no usage limit on the browser tool.
  • Processing happens locally. Files are read from disk and the result is written back to your downloads folder.
  • Results are reproducible: the same input and options produce the same output, with no hidden server round-trip.
  • If the tool needs a live data source, the page states it explicitly instead of silently failing.

OCR Image to Text FAQ

The questions people ask before using this tool.

The browser decides which formats it can decode. Modern Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari handle PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF and, in many cases, AVIF. Unsupported files show a clear error instead of failing silently.
