Convert images to Word, PDF, and text documents

The image to document converter supports 9 output formats for different purposes. Convert images to DOC or DOCX for editable Word documents. Choose ODT for LibreOffice compatibility. Use TXT or RTF for plain or lightly formatted text extraction.

Select PDF to create fixed-layout documents optimized for printing and sharing. Convert to HTML for web-ready content. Choose PPT or PPTX to turn images into presentation slides. Each format handles images and extracted text differently, so pick the one that matches your goal.

Enable OCR before converting to extract text from photos, screenshots, or scanned documents. OCR works with all 9 output formats and supports 13 languages. The converter detects text in the image and embeds it in the resulting document.

Control image quality in your documents

The image to document converter offers 4 quality levels for embedded images. Best quality preserves every detail and is ideal for printing or archiving. Good quality balances file size and clarity for everyday use.

Medium and Best compression reduce the file size of the output document. Lower quality settings create smaller files that are faster to upload, email, or store. Choose the level that fits your needs before clicking Convert.

Extract text from images with OCR

Select the language of the text before converting for the best results. The image to document converter supports OCR in 13 languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Arabic. The extracted text appears in the document ready for editing, copying, or searching.

The image to document converter runs in your browser and works on any device. No software installation is needed. It works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android. You keep full copyright and ownership of every file you convert.
