With Jaws 2018 and later it's as easy as pressing a shortcut key combination when you are on any image file in Windows Explorer. You might want to try the following, I did a Google search for "Online OCR of jpg files": Free Online OCR service allows you to convert PDF document to MS Word file , scanned images to editable text formats and extract text from JPEG /TIFF/BMP ... Here is the link: Free Online OCR - convert PDF to Word or Image to text<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.onlineocr.net%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cd92e97af52884ec2ef0f08d61fe39a18%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636731459731166766&sdata=4Rh%2BryqTzNuhJl6kh2AKNeft88UK1RDPf53CJfkbjsw%3D&reserved=0> Once you are on the page, look for the “Choose Files” button, it says above: 1 STEP - Upload file 2 STEP - Select language and output format 3 STEP – Convert Sounds like most online converters and it will probably work well enough.

Can anyone tell me which app can ocr a jpg image? The French teacher of a class I’m going to has started sending French articles to us as jpg files. I’ve tried TextGrabber and KNFB Reader but neither can get anything. I’m using iPhone 7 Plus and a 2018 iPad, iOS 12. Might my MacBook Pro on high Sierra do a better job?Recommendations welcome!
