Turn scans into searchable text
Turn scanned documents into searchable, selectable text
OCR (Optical Character Recognition) extracts text from scanned PDFs and images, making them searchable, selectable, and copyable. Simply scan a document or take a photo, and Docu Stop detects the text within, preserving layout and formatting. Supports multiple languages — ideal for digitizing printed documents, books, business cards, and handwritten notes. Once processed, you can search, edit, or export the text as needed.
Why this is in the app
OCR requires heavy server-side processing that exceeds the browser upload limits. The Docu Stop app handles large, multi-page scans and supports batch OCR with automatic language detection.

Can OCR recognize handwriting?
OCR works best with printed text. Handwriting recognition depends on legibility — clear, blocky handwriting may be recognized, but cursive and messy handwriting often produces poor results.
Which languages does OCR support?
Docu Stop OCR supports dozens of languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Arabic.
Is OCR accurate?
For clear, printed documents, accuracy is typically 95-99%. Factors like image quality, font clarity, and page layout affect results. Higher resolution scans produce better OCR output.
Can I OCR a photo of a document?
Yes — take a photo of any document and the OCR engine will extract the text. For best results, ensure even lighting and minimal shadow.
