How to turn an image into Word
Drop the image on the page, paste a screenshot with ⌘V or Ctrl+V, or take a photo on your phone. The text appears next to the image as it is read. Then click "Word" for a .docx file you can edit.
What the file keeps, and what it does not
The file is for editing the content, not for recreating the look of the image.
- Kept: the text, paragraphs, tables and the direction of each line
- Not kept: fonts, colours, logos and pictures inside the image, and exact positions on the page
A phone photo or a screenshot
A screenshot reads best, because its text is sharp and straight. For a photo of a page, even light and the whole page in the frame, straight on, make most of the difference. If the page was caught at an angle or in shadow, take the photo again from above.
