The Image to Text Converter is a free online OCR (Optical Character Recognition) tool that extracts text from images, screenshots, scanned documents, and PDFs. Upload any image containing text — whether it is a photograph of a document, a screenshot of a website, a scanned receipt, or a PDF page — and the AI extracts the text with high accuracy. The extracted text can be copied, downloaded as a TXT file, or edited directly.
