FAQ

How accurate is it?

Clear printed text and screenshots are mostly read correctly. Handwriting, blurry or skewed photos and decorative fonts are error-prone. Always double-check look-alike characters, URLs and numbers against the original.

How many PDF pages can it handle?

Up to 20 pages per run. For longer documents, change the first and last page and run it in parts. PDFs with selectable text are extracted directly without OCR, which is faster and exact.

Why is the first run slow?

The recognition model (language data) downloads on first use; Accurate mode uses a bigger one. It is kept in your browser, so later runs start immediately.

Are tables and formatting kept?

No. Only the text is extracted, in reading order. Table cells, fonts and bold are not preserved.
