FAQ

Bangla OCR: Questions

Is this Bangla OCR free?

Yes. Bangla image to text is free with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many images you convert.

Is the text Unicode or Bijoy?

The text is standard Unicode Bangla, which works in Word, Google Docs, browsers, Facebook and phones without a special font. To use it in Bijoy software you would need a Unicode-to-Bijoy converter.

Can it read Bangla handwriting?

Not reliably. It is made for printed Bangla, such as books, newspapers, notices, forms and screenshots. Clear, high-resolution images give the best results.

Are my documents uploaded?

No. The OCR runs in your browser, so photos of NID cards, certificates and letters stay on your device.
