## What is Image to text°?

Convert any PDF / image to searchable PDF files with PDF Converter, thanks to OCR (text recognition) which supports many languages.
In the created PDF files, you can, thanks to on-device OCR:
• Search inside the PDF
• Select text
• Copy text (and paste it elsewhere)
→ Perfect for a paperless organization. And everything happens offline, no data is collected.

As input, you can use:
• existing PDF files (even non-searchable ones)
• existing images/photos
• scan documents with your device's camera
Mix all these together and create splendid PDF files.

Apply color/size filters to customize your files:
• Color / Grayscal / Black & White
• Choose the resolution of the images
• Choose the quality of the images
→ Instant preview of the output file size

Also extract to text:
• Save the extracted text to a .txt file
• or immediately copy the extracted text to paste it elsewhere

Many options available:
• Automatic file naming: configure a pattern with dates/time/text to generate the filename automatically on document creation
• Cloud upload: iCloud Drive/WebDAV/Dropbox/OneDrive/Google Drive/NAS/SMB/NextCloud/pCloud/Email/paperless-ngx and more...
• Export Favorites: configure multiple destinations with specific settings (OCR/image/file format/...) that can be accessed quickly when exporting.
• Widgets (home screen & lock screen) & Siri Shortcuts: they can be used to trigger a scan. Moreover, they can be associated with an Export Favorite to trigger an export automatically to the associated favorite.
• PDF physical size: choose the PDF print size: A4, A3, US LETTER,...

BULK OCR:
• The Bulk OCR functionality allows you to quickly convert many documents/images to searchable PDF(s) in one batch

NO DATA COLLECTION:
• Everything works offline, on your device
• No data is collected, your privacy is respected

I hope you enjoy the app made with love & care by an independant developer!

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2025-06-29*

I have tried all other OCR tools and this one does the job

### 5/5 — Great work

*2025-02-18*

It is amazing to see such creative developers around.🤘

### 2/5 — Super appli mais hors de prix

*2023-12-18*

Bien sur il est important que le dévelopeur puisse être rémunéré pour son travail. Et je suis enthousiaste pour payer. Mais 6€ par mois pour une programme utile environ entre 10m et 30m par moi max ??? Vous imaginez que si les 50 ou 100 applications dont on a besoin 10m par mois nous demande 6€/mois, on arrive à 600/mois d’abonnement. On marche sur la tête avec ce système. Donc avec tout mon respect car j’aimais bien cette application. Poubelle…

**Developer response:** EDIT : Bonjour, je suis toujours sans nouvelles. Avez-vous pu régler ce problème ? Je reste lésé par votre note, si vous avez deux minutes pour la mettre à jour, ma famille et moi-même vous remercieraient énormément 🤗🙏🏻. Merci !  ————- Bonjour, merci d’avoir pris le temps d’écrire ceci. Je voudrais ajouter quelques informations utiles et un peu de contexte. Il y a une version annuelle qui revient 80% moins cher. De plus, la version gratuite est aussi très fonctionnelle si vous n’êtes pas un utilisateur intensif.
Par ailleurs, j’ai aussi à la charge les coûts d’infrastructure et les 4 ans de travail passé sur l’application. 
Si vous acceptez de me contacter par e-mail depuis l’app, je serais ravi de discuter de tout ceci avec vous pour mieux comprendre vos besoins et votre point de vue. Ce serait super et très constructif. 
En attendant, pour adoucir la ‘baffe’ en pleine figure 🥲🥹 de cette note, pensez-vous pouvoir la changer ? ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Merci beaucoup, et dans l’attente de vos nouvelles 🙏🏻🪂, John.

### 5/5 — Sehr gut!

*2023-07-23*

Tut genau das was es soll,…schnell und zuverlässig !

### 1/5 — Nicht für große Seitenzahlen

*2023-05-18*

Die App kann keine großen Seitenzahlen verarbeiten. Bei Dokumenten die über 75 Seiten haben, ist der Rest einfach weg und nur Seit 0-75 werden angezeigt

**Developer response:** EDIT2: still no news about this rating that punishes me a lot. Can you verify if everything is OK now, a lot has changed!? ORIGINAL: Hallo, this has been fixed! Can you just make sure that you have the latest version? Since your rating greatly affects my work, could you please update it? Much appreciated 🙏🏻. Vielen Dank! Jonathan

### 5/5 — Responsive Developer, Good App

*2022-07-12*

Solid app. Had an issue with licensing with the new update, but upon contacting the developer, it became clear this was not intended. They have since fixed the issue for me. If you have a similar problem, just reach out to the email in the app.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your great review. I'm glad the issue is fixed! Be safe!

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2021-10-27*

I need an app that took a very large 500 page PDF Service Manual which had no searchable text and convert it to a PDF manual having all searchable text without changing the appearance whatsoever. The manual looks the same but is now searchable.  I’m so happy!

**Developer response:** Thank you for this awesome review! 😃
