SCREENSHOT OCR TRANSLATION

Screenshot OCR Translator for Desktop

Translate text that cannot be copied. Capture any screen region, extract text locally, and understand images, slides, PDFs, games, and app interfaces faster.

When copy and paste is not enough

Text can be locked inside images, scanned PDFs, games, slide decks, or apps that do not allow selection. Screenshot OCR lets you translate what you see, not only what you can copy.

How Screenshot OCR works in Transifyr

Use the global OCR shortcut to select a screen region. Transifyr recognizes text locally and sends the result into the translation flow. This helps you translate visual content without switching tools.

Frequently asked questions

Can it translate text from images?

Yes. Capture the image area and Transifyr extracts text before translating it.

Is OCR local?

Text recognition uses local OCR, so the screenshot does not need to be uploaded for OCR processing.
