Why PNG screenshots work well for OCR
PNG preserves sharp edges without JPEG artifacts, which often helps OCR on screenshots, diagrams, and interface text. Recognition still depends on adequate resolution and contrast.
Transparent areas are rendered by the browser while the visible text is analyzed.
Vanliga frågor
Is PNG better than JPG for OCR?
PNG often preserves small screen text more clearly because it does not introduce lossy compression artifacts.
Can the tool read transparent PNG files?
Yes, provided the visible text has enough contrast against its rendered background.
Can I rotate a sideways screenshot?
Yes. Choose 90, 180, or 270 degrees before recognition.
Is the PNG sent to a server?
No. Tesseract processes it on this device after its model assets load.
