Image to Text (OCR) in Hindi and English

Retyping a page from a photograph is an hour nobody has. This reads the words off the picture instead.

How it works

It is built for what a phone camera actually produces — uneven light, a slight tilt, too few pixels per letter — so the page is straightened and its lighting evened out before anything is read, and a page that scores badly is read a second way and the better result kept. Hindi and English both work, including a page with both on it.

Step by step

  1. Take or upload a photo of the page.
  2. Wait a few seconds while it is read.
  3. Copy the text, or save it as a text file or PDF.

Questions people ask

Does it read Hindi?

Yes, Hindi and English, including a page with both on it.

How accurate is it?

A clear phone photo of printed text comes out close to exact. Handwriting, a crumpled page or a photo taken at an angle come out worse — straighten the page and the accuracy jumps.

Can I get a PDF I can search?

Yes. The recognised words can be laid invisibly over the original picture, so the page looks untouched and Ctrl+F finds the words.
