Questions
Why are some words wrong?
Blurry, tilted or very small text is hard to read. Try a sharper picture and the right language.
Why pick the language?
The reader uses word lists for that language. The right one makes the result much more accurate.
Can it read a PDF?
Not directly. Save the PDF pages as JPG with PDF to JPG, then read each picture here.
How much does it cost?
Files up to 10 MB are free. A bigger file needs a 24-hour pass for €1.00, taxes included. No account.
