FAQ

What people usually ask before they run it

What kinds of images work best?

JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, and BMP all work well. Screenshots, clear photos, scanned pages, and cropped UI captures give the best OCR accuracy, especially when the source text is sharp, high contrast, and easy to read at normal zoom.

Can I upload more than one image at a time?

Yes. Batch image translation is supported, so you can queue up to 50 screenshots, photos, manga panels, or scanned pages in one run. This is useful for multi-page documents, long screenshot sets, or batches of related visuals.

Do translated images stay in my account?

Yes. Every completed run is saved to your account history, so you can reopen, download, or delete translated images later.

How accurate is the OCR and translation?

On clear printed text, the OCR is designed for very high accuracy and performs well on screenshots, menus, signs, and scanned pages. Results can be less reliable on low-resolution images, unusual fonts, or messy handwriting, so cleaner source images always help.

How many languages does the image translator support?

The translator supports 100+ output languages, including English, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Korean, Portuguese, and many others. The source language is detected automatically, then translated into the target language you choose.

Will the original layout stay intact after translation?

Yes. The tool is designed to keep the background, layout, and visual reading flow intact after translation. It works especially well for manga panels, game screenshots, menus, and other images where the translated text needs to stay in context.

Can it handle handwritten text too?

Yes, it can process handwritten text, but accuracy depends heavily on how clear and consistent the handwriting is. Printed text, sharp screenshots, and well-lit scanned pages still give the most reliable results.
