Extract text from PDFs in 100+ languages with OCR

About Multi-language OCR

Not every document you need to digitize is in English, and OCR built for one language can stumble badly on others. Multi-language OCR reads text in over 100 languages, recognizing different scripts and characters so you can extract words from documents no matter where they came from.

Upload your PDF and the tool detects and reads the text across many supported languages, returning the extracted content. It is free, browser-based, needs no signup, and your file is processed only for the recognition and not stored. It is built for the reality that documents come in every alphabet, from Latin scripts to Cyrillic, Arabic, and beyond, with the cleanest results coming from clear, well-scanned pages.

Common uses

FAQ

Do I need to choose the language?

Can it handle mixed-language documents?

What affects accuracy most?

Scan quality matters most. Sharp, straight, high-resolution pages read far better than faint or skewed ones.
