Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can it read handwriting?
Accuracy varies for handwriting. It works exceptionally well on printed documents, high-contrast screenshots, and digitized book pages.
Why does OCR processing take some time?
The OCR scripts run local neural network layers to analyze character matrices. Speed depends on image complexity and your computer’s CPU processing speed.
Are scanned documents uploaded to the cloud?
No. The image file is processed via canvas pixel parsing in your browser memory. We have no servers to receive, inspect, or log your documents.
