IMAGE TOOLS
Image to Word
Turn text in an image into an editable Word document.
Your files are processed on your device and are never uploaded.
Convert an image to an editable Word document. Take a photo or screenshot of printed text, and OCR reads the words and gives you a Word (.doc) file you can edit, format and print – no retyping.
How to Convert an Image to Word
- Choose your image – a document photo, scan or screenshot.
- Select the language of the text (English, Hindi, Spanish, French, German and more).
- Click Extract text.
- Click Download Word (.doc) and open the file in Microsoft Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice.
Tips for Better Results
- Photograph the page flat, in good light and in focus.
- Crop away anything that is not text before converting.
- The text comes out as plain paragraphs – tables and complex layouts will need some formatting in Word.
- Proofread names and numbers, as OCR can mix up similar characters.
