1-    If you are using Windows 8 or above, click on the Start Manu and find Microsoft’s NoteOne. It is free software, and it even comes pre-installed in all Windows 10 operating systems as well.

2-    Find the image you want to extract text from it could be in any format.JPEG .jpg.PNG or even .pdf file. Open the image (containing the text) from NoteOne.

3-    Using your mouse, hover over the image and right-click on the image.

Press “Convert”.  We found it to work great with various formats of images, but sometimes it adds some additional words which could be edited to make it more presentable.
