Frequently Asked Questions

What is OCR and why do I need it?

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) converts scanned page images into real, selectable text. If you can't highlight or copy text from your PDF, it's a scanned document — OCR fixes that.

How accurate is the OCR?

Clear 300 DPI scans achieve 95%+ accuracy. Best results come from high-contrast black text on white background. Blurry or handwritten documents will have lower accuracy.

Can I translate the OCR output?

Yes. After downloading the TXT file, you can copy the text into the Translate PDF tool — or upload the original PDF there and it will automatically run OCR before translating.

Which languages are supported?

English, Bengali, Hindi, Arabic, French, German, Spanish, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese, Urdu, and Portuguese. Select your document's language from the dropdown for best accuracy.
