FEATURES
Same Image to Text job
Not a second Tools-grid entry. JPG to Text, PNG to Text, Photo to Text, and Screenshot to Text reuse this extract.
Words, not columns
This page downloads OCR text. Image to Excel and Image to CSV reconstruct rows and columns.
Not OCR PDF
This is a photo. For a scanned PDF, use OCR PDF. For selectable PDF text, use PDF to TXT.
Files stay local
OCR runs in your browser. We do not upload the image.
Honest OCR
We use Tesseract. Skewed photos, tiny type, and handwriting will miss words.

Use PDF to TXT if the words are already selectable in a PDF. Use OCR PDF for a scanned PDF.
