Arabic and English OCR that keeps your documents private
Most free OCR sites handle English well and Arabic badly — and they all want you to upload the document. This tool recognises Arabic, English or both on the same page, and it runs the recognition engine inside your browser, so a scanned contract, ID or medical report never leaves your device.
Drop in a scanned PDF, a photo or a screenshot. If a PDF page already contains real text, it is copied directly — instantly and perfectly. Scanned pages are read by the OCR engine, and you can download the result as plain text or as a searchable PDF that looks like the original but lets you select and search the words.
How to get the best Arabic results
- Use clear, printed text: 300 dpi scans or sharp phone photos in good light.
- Choose “Arabic” alone for Arabic-only pages — it is faster and more accurate than both.
- Handwriting and decorative fonts are not recognised reliably by any OCR.
- Typing up a price list or catalogue? We can put it online as a website or menu you update yourself.
