Frequently asked questions

How accurate is it?
Clean screenshots of printed-style text recognize very well. Photos at angles, low light or stylized fonts reduce accuracy — the free preview lets you check before paying.
Layout preserved?
v1 returns plain text in reading order — best for words you need to copy. Complex tables belong in the Excel tool.
Is my image stored?
No — processed for this single task, destroyed after 24 hours.

When this tool is not the right choice

You need a searchable PDF (visuals preserved).
Use PDF Make Searchable — same OCR engine, different output.
The source is handwriting.
Handwriting OCR is unreliable — transcription remains the honest option.
