Image to Searchable PDF — OCR-Powered Conversion

Turn photos of documents, scanned pages, or screenshots into a searchable PDF. OCR detects every word and overlays invisible, selectable text so you can search, copy, and index the content while the original image is preserved.

Why use this page?

  • OCR extracts text from images automatically
  • Text is selectable, copyable, and searchable in the output PDF
  • Original image quality is fully preserved
  • Supports JPG, PNG, and WebP formats
  • Combine multiple images into one searchable document

How it works

  1. Upload one or more images (JPG, PNG, or WebP).
  2. Click Process — OCR runs on each image automatically.
  3. Download the searchable PDF.
  4. Open in any PDF reader and try selecting or searching text.

Frequently asked questions

What languages does OCR support?

The OCR engine detects English text by default. For best results, ensure images are well-lit and text is clearly visible.

Can I edit the text after conversion?

The output PDF is searchable — you can select and copy text. To edit, open the result in the PDF Editor.

Does this change the appearance of my images?

No. Each image is embedded at its original resolution. The text layer is completely invisible — it only enables search and selection.

What if my image has handwritten text?

OCR works best on printed text. Handwritten text may be partially recognised depending on clarity.
