FAQ
Is Malay OCR free?
You can try 3 files a day without an account. With an account, OCR uses 1 credit per word read (minimum 200 per file), or pages from an OCR Page Pack.
Can it read handwritten Malay?
Neat handwriting often works, but printed text gives the most reliable result. Compare names and numbers with the original.
Which files can I upload?
JPG, PNG, WEBP and HEIC images, PDFs and Word files, up to 8 MB each.
Does it translate the Malay text?
No. OCR keeps the text in Malay. To translate it, copy the text into the translator.
