English printed text works best with a clear, upright scan. Handwriting and other languages may be less accurate. PDF pages are rasterized locally and original files are never changed.

HOW IT WORKS

Read, review, and reuse.

OCR can make mistakes, especially with handwriting, low contrast, or unusual layouts. Review the result before using it.
