Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Word file look like my image?

No. This tool extracts the printed text and keeps its paragraphs and line breaks, but it does not recreate the layout, fonts, colours, pictures, tables or columns. You get plain editable text in a DOCX file, which you can then format in Word.

Which languages can it read?

English, Arabic, or English and Arabic in the same image. Choose the option that matches your image. Arabic paragraphs are set right to left in the Word file. Other scripts and handwriting are not recognized reliably.

How do I get the most accurate text?

Use a straight, well-lit photo or scan of printed text with dark letters on a light background, and crop away anything that is not text. Very small, blurred, decorative or handwritten text reduces accuracy. Always proofread the result, especially numbers and names. If no text is found, the converter tells you instead of creating an empty document.

Can I convert a PDF or several images?

This page converts one JPG, JPEG, PNG or WebP image at a time. For a PDF with selectable text, use PDF to Word. For a scanned PDF of up to 10 pages, Image to Text extracts the text as a plain TXT file.

What is the upload limit?

The default limit is 20 MiB for one file. Check the upload area for the current limit. The server upload ceiling is 100 MiB per file; file complexity and processing time can also limit conversion. Images can be up to 100 megapixels, and recognition must finish within two minutes.

Where are files processed and when are they removed?

This tool uploads files to Zutilium's server for processing. After a successful conversion, uploads are scheduled for deletion after about one minute and generated downloads after about ten minutes. Cleanup runs periodically, so removal is not immediate. Save your result promptly.
