Free Spanish PDF OCR — Extract Spanish Text from Scans
Scanned Spanish documents — contratos, facturas, certificados, old letters — are just images: you can’t search them, copy them, or translate them. This tool runs OCR tuned for Spanish (including ñ, accents like á/é/í/ó/ú and inverted punctuation) entirely in your browser, then hands you the text to copy or download. Upload a scanned PDF or a photo of the page. Your files never leave your browser.

✅ Done — recognized Spanish text
How it works
- Step 1 — Drop in a scanned Spanish PDF or a photo of the page (.jpg, .png, .webp).
- Step 2 — Pick a page limit preset and render scale; higher scale reads faint scans better.
- Step 3 — Hit Run Spanish OCR — the Spanish-trained engine loads once (~10 MB, then cached), reads each page, and you copy or download the text.
Everyday uses
- Bilingual offices — digitize contratos, facturas, and certificates into searchable text.
- Students — pull quotes from scanned Spanish textbooks without retyping accents and ñ.
- Genealogy & archives — transcribe old Spanish-language letters and records.
- Translators — get clean Spanish source text to feed into your translation workflow.
- Receipts & bills — digitize Spanish invoices for expense records and accounting.
Rule of thumb: OCR reads Spanish best at 300 DPI or higher, straight-on and well-lit — rescan blurry or skewed pages before trusting the output for official paperwork.
