How To Convert Image To Text In Google Docs
Google Docs is a free online document editor provided by Google. Google Docs makes it easier to create a document for personal and professional uses with a variety of features. People often take photos of notes on the blackboard a billboard, or from a newspaper for using it later. These text contents in photos may be needed to type into a document. Sometimes the image may be having 1 or 2 lines of content in it. Sometimes it can have many lines of text in the image. It takes a lot of time to type all that into a document by seeing the image every time.
Fortunately using Google Docs, we can save time on our work. Google Docs comes with an OCR tool. OCR means Optical Character Recognition which helps in getting all the text content in an image and converting it to digitally typed text.
