Frequently asked questions

What languages are supported?
Our OCR tool supports 100+ languages including English, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Hindi, and many more. Select the appropriate language for best accuracy.
How accurate is the text recognition?
Accuracy depends on image quality, font clarity, and text size. Clear, high-resolution images with standard fonts typically achieve 95%+ accuracy. Blurry or very small text will reduce accuracy.
Can it recognize handwritten text?
Tesseract.js is optimized for printed text. Handwriting recognition is limited and works best with very clear, well-spaced handwriting. For best results, use images with printed or typed text.
Is there a file size limit?
No server-side limit since processing happens in your browser. Very large images may take longer to process. For best performance, use images under 10 MB.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. All OCR processing happens entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your images never leave your device and are not stored anywhere.
