COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Can I scan copyrighted work?+

Only use material within your license, permission or applicable legal exception. OCR does not change copyright status.

Will it preserve diagrams?+

No. It extracts text; diagrams and their relationships need separate description or recreation.

Are my files uploaded?+

OCR runs in your browser. Your file is only sent to a configured cloud provider if you explicitly choose a labeled AI repair action.
