Convert Your PDF Document Or An Image To Text.

Sometimes we face some IT related problems. Among them some are very interesting. In early days I face a problem and I don’t get its easy solutions. I was working with an image and need to convert it in test document. Then I went to Photoshop and don’t get the solution.
Then I think about search engine because in my opinion search engine is the wise person till I have seen. I asked search engine and get huge answers. Oh! I don’t tell the problem till now. Let’s start………
I had an Image what I need to convert to text document. Among the search engine answers this is the best solution for solving my problem. If you want to convert your PDF document or an image to text then always suggest you Free OCR. By the help of free-ocr.com you can easily convert your PDF document or an image to text.
Open this site. Upload a PDF or image file (JPG, TIFF, BMP) from your computer and Free OCR will process the document/image within a few seconds and spit it back out in plain text format.
The max file size is currently 2 MB. You don’t have to do any pre-processing to your images except for making sure it is not skewed right or left. If it is, go ahead and deskew it before uploading.












Also, if there is more than one column in your image, it will convert it all to one column. However, they are creating a layout engine that will recognize more complex documents in the future.
The recommended DPI for the images is 150, but if you have a file that is a lower DPI, go ahead and try it anyway to see if it works.
The only major limitation right now is that it can convert only the first page of a PDF document and that’s it! So if you have more than one page, you’ll only get the first page. In the future, you will be able to process up to 10 pages.

Overall, the OCR results were very good on cleanly printed PDF and image files. Obviously, if I tried a lower resolution scanned document, it didn’t catch everything, but still the results were impressive for a free online service!
