How to convert an image to Word

Three steps from a photo to a document you can edit.

  1. Upload your image

    Sign in with Google and upload a PNG, JPG or WebP up to 14 MiB: a photo of a page, a screenshot, a scanned letter or a handwritten note.

  2. Check the text

    The text appears beside your image in reading order. Blank lines between blocks become paragraph breaks, and rows with a tab between cells become a table. If the image wraps a paragraph over several lines, switch on Join the lines of each paragraph. Nothing is translated or rewritten.

  3. Download the document

    Download a .docx file that opens in Word, Pages and Google Docs, or copy the text. Fonts, colors and page layout are not kept, so format the document in your own word processor.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert an image to Word?

Sign in with Google and upload the image. The text appears beside it, line by line, in reading order. Check it against the image, then select Download .docx to get a Word document you can edit, or copy the text into a document yourself.

Is Image to Word free?

Yes. Reading the text in an image uses no credits, with or without a plan; you only need to sign in with Google. Credits are only for changing the image itself: editing, translating or removing its text.

Does it keep the layout and fonts?

No. The document holds the text in reading order. Blank lines between blocks become paragraph breaks, and each row of a table, with a tab between its cells, becomes a row of a Word table. Fonts, colors, pictures and page layout are not kept, so style the document in your word processor.

Can it read handwriting and other languages?

It reads clear handwriting and text in many languages, and keeps the original characters and accents. Messy writing can come back with mistakes, so compare the text with the image before you rely on it. It does not translate; to put the words into another language inside the image, use Translate text.

Which programs open the .docx file?

Any program that opens Word documents, such as Microsoft Word, Pages, Google Docs and LibreOffice. The file holds plain paragraphs and tables, with no macros or embedded pictures.

Which files can I upload, and are they private?

Upload a PNG, JPG or WebP image up to 14 MiB after signing in with Google. Your images and their text are private to your account. My images keeps each image, so you can open its text again later without reading it a second time.
