The text recognition runs in your browser. Your file is never uploaded.

This free online OCR tool extracts the text from your PNG image so you can copy, edit and reuse it. OCR (optical character recognition) reads the characters in the image and turns them into real, selectable text.

Everything runs inside your web browser. Your PNG image is never uploaded to a server, which makes this one of the most private ways to run OCR online. There is nothing to install and no account to create.

How to extract text from your PNG image

  1. Upload or drag and drop your PNG image into the box above.
  2. EverythingConverter loads the OCR engine (the first run downloads a small language model) and reads the text directly in your browser.
  3. Review the extracted text, copy it, or download it as a .txt file. Nothing is ever sent to a server.

Frequently asked questions

Is this PNG to Text OCR tool free?

Yes, completely free with no limits, no watermark and no sign-up. You can extract text from as many files as you like.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The OCR runs entirely in your browser, so your PNG image never leaves your device. It is a private way to convert PNG image to text.

Which languages does the OCR support?

The tool reads English text out of the box with high accuracy. Clear, high-resolution scans give the best results.

Why does the first run take a few seconds?

The first time you use it, the browser downloads the OCR language model (a one-time download that is then cached). After that, recognition is much faster.

Can I edit the recognised text?

Yes. The extracted text appears in an editable box so you can fix anything before you copy it or download it as a text file.
