Check image quality before recognition

Use only clear, upright JPG, PNG or WebP images with readable text and even lighting. OCR can miss or misread words, punctuation and layout. FileNest does not guarantee perfect accuracy; you must review before export.

After recognition, an editable preview appears and human confirmation is required before export. Image-based PDFs are not supported. The first scan downloads roughly 7–12 MB of local engine and language data, which the browser can cache.

FAQ

Questions before you begin

Is OCR guaranteed to be completely accurate?

No. Blur, skew, glare, handwriting, unusual fonts and complex layouts can cause missing or incorrect text. Review every result before export.

Are images uploaded?

No. OCR images, custom backgrounds and document generation stay in this browser. The OCR engine and selected language data download on first use.

Are PDFs or handwriting supported?

The tool currently accepts JPG, PNG and WebP, not PDF. Handwriting and low-quality images may not be recognized reliably, so accuracy is not guaranteed.

Can I add a background after OCR?

Yes. After approving the text, keep white, choose a built-in template or upload your own JPG, PNG or WebP. PDF, Word and HTML can retain the background.
