Turn a storybook excerpt into tracing pages

Extract text with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and export precise manuscript PDFs.

  1. Step 1

    Choose a short excerpt

    Pick a few sentences you own the rights to. Shorter is faster and easier to edit.

  2. Step 2

    Capture a clean image

    Use good light and avoid glare. Fill the frame. Supported types: JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC/HEIF, AVIF, TIFF.

  3. Step 3

    Upload with Add Images

    In the composer toolbar, click or tap Add Images. Each photo can be up to 10MB and 8,192×8,192 pixels. You can add up to 12 at once.

  4. Step 4

    Review extracted text

    We prepare your photo (fix the orientation/size) and recognize the text (OCR), then place the text in the editor for quick fixes.

  5. Step 5

    Pick size and export

    Choose a font size and layout, then export a PDF that prints cleanly with consistent line heights.

We delete uploaded images after processing.
