Convert .Jpeg to Word

If you need to extract the text from an image so that you can edit it, you can do so with an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) program. These programs scan image files and convert the text so that you can copy and paste it into a Word document. If you just need to insert an image into a Word document, you can do so by copying and pasting it.

Steps

Converting an Image to Text

1. Download an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) program or find an online converter. OCR programs will scan image files and convert any text into document form. You can use it to convert any image with text into editable documents. There are a variety of free and paid OCR programs you can download and install, or you can use online services that don't require any installation.
   • Popular downloadable programs include FreeOCR and OCRtoWord. Both of these support scanning JPG/JPEG images.
   • Popular online conversion services include OnlineOCR and Free-OCR. Both of these support scanning JPG/JPEG images.
2. Load the image you want to scan. If you are using an online service, upload the image to the website. If you are using a downloaded program, open the image file in the program.
3. Wait for the conversion to complete. This could take a few minutes if the image file is large.
4. Copy the converted text. After scanning the document, the OCR program will return the text it was able to retrieve. The text that you get will be dependent on the clarity of the original image.
   • OCR programs will not provide you with the original image. Only text is converted.
5. Paste the copied text into Word. Paste the text into the document that you want to add it to.
6. Check for errors. Even the most advanced OCR software will occasionally mistake a character or two. Make sure to carefully read the converted text to ensure that there are no typos or serious errors.

Adding an Image to a Word Document
