Extract text from JPG and JPEG photos taken with smartphones or cameras. Built for real-world images with uneven lighting, shadows, and compression artefacts — receipts, documents, notes, and business cards. Supports 15 languages. All processing happens in your browser — your photos are never sent anywhere.
Upload your JPG or JPEG file
Drag and drop your JPG or JPEG photo onto the drop zone, click Browse files to select one from your device, or paste an image directly with Ctrl+V. Photos taken on a smartphone or digital camera are fully supported. Maximum file size is 10 MB.
Select the language of the text
Choose the language of the text in the photo using the language selector. Up to 3 languages can be selected at once for bilingual documents. Matching the correct language to the content significantly boosts recognition accuracy.
Enable Grayscale for better results on photos
JPEG compression can introduce colour artefacts that confuse OCR engines. Enabling Grayscale under Image Enhancement strips colour information and often improves accuracy on camera photos, especially those taken in uneven lighting or against a coloured background.
Adjust Contrast if text is hard to read
Photos shot in low light or with shadows over text benefit from the Contrast setting. Try Subtle first — if text edges are still blurry, switch to Strong. These adjustments are applied locally and do not modify your original file.
Wait for the recognition to finish
The progress indicator shows two phases: downloading the language data file (only on first use — cached by the browser afterwards) and running recognition. For typical smartphone photos this takes a few seconds.
Review the confidence score and edit if needed
The confidence badge shows how reliable the result is. High JPEG compression or motion blur in photos can lower accuracy — if the score is below 65%, try adjusting Contrast or Grayscale and click Re-run. The output text is fully editable before you copy or download it.
No — your JPG photo is never uploaded to any server. All text recognition runs entirely inside your browser using Tesseract.js and WebAssembly, so your image stays on your device and is never transmitted anywhere. This matters for photos that may contain personal or sensitive information such as documents, receipts, or ID cards.
The tool supports 15 languages: English, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Turkish, and Ukrainian. You can select up to 3 languages simultaneously for bilingual documents or photos with mixed-language content.
Yes, JPEG compression can reduce OCR accuracy because its lossy algorithm blurs fine details — serifs, thin strokes, and punctuation — especially when the photo was saved at low quality or re-compressed multiple times. Enabling Grayscale and Strong Contrast compensates for mild artefacts and is the recommended first step when the confidence score is below 65%.
For JPG photos, confidence below 65% is more common than with lossless formats because JPEG compression blurs fine character details. Camera noise, shadows, and perspective distortion further reduce accuracy. If the score is low, enable Grayscale and Strong Contrast — these address the most common causes of poor recognition in JPEG images.
Yes — smartphone JPEG photos work well. For the best results, make sure the text fills a large portion of the frame, the photo is in focus, and lighting is even. If accuracy is low, enable Grayscale and increase the Contrast setting to compensate for shadows or uneven lighting.
JPG is less ideal when text is small, the font has thin strokes, or the image has been compressed multiple times — each save cycle degrades quality. Screenshots, diagrams, and documents with crisp edges are better preserved as PNG. Use JPG for real-world photography; use PNG for digital documents and interface captures.
JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, and TIFF are all supported. Maximum file size is 10 MB. For best results use high-resolution images with clear, high-contrast text and minimal motion blur.
