Images often contain valuable information, whether it’s a scanned document, a screenshot, a receipt, or a photograph. Traditionally, extracting this information required separate OCR software or manual transcription.

With Conholdate’s online Image to TXT converter, you can quickly transform raster images into plain text files. If the image contains readable text, the converter extracts it. If the image is a photograph, artwork, or illustration, AI generates a meaningful description of its contents and saves it into a TXT file.

No software installation is required - everything works directly in your browser.

What Happens During Conversion?

The converter automatically analyzes the uploaded image and determines its content type:

  • Document scans, screenshots, receipts, invoices, forms, and pages with text -> the text is extracted and saved to a TXT file.
  • Photos, illustrations, artwork, landscapes, objects, and scenes -> an AI-generated description is created and saved to a TXT file.

For example:

Input: A scanned contract page Output: A TXT file containing the extracted contract text.

Input: A landscape photograph Output: A TXT file containing a description such as:

“A mountain landscape overlooking a lake with trees in the foreground and a cloudy sky.”
