How does PDF.to convert a JPEG image into a DOCX document?
+
We run OCR on your JPEG, recognize the text, and place it into a DOCX you can edit. Images from the JPEG are embedded alongside the recognized text where they appeared.
How accurate is the OCR for JPEG to DOCX?
+
On clean 300-DPI scans, English OCR is typically 98%+ accurate. Hand-written, low-resolution, or skewed JPEG images yield lower accuracy and may need manual review in the resulting DOCX.
Paragraphs, columns, tables, and basic headings are reconstructed in the DOCX. Highly designed layouts (magazine pages, infographics) may need touch-up after conversion.
Does the converter preserve tables from the JPEG?
+
Yes — detected tables are rebuilt as native DOCX tables with rows, columns, and cell content. Complex nested or borderless tables may flatten into plain text.
Will images and figures from the JPEG stay in the DOCX?
+
Yes. Photos, diagrams, and figures are extracted at their original resolution and placed in the resulting DOCX near the recognized text.
Can I batch-convert many JPEG images at once?
+
Yes — upload a folder of JPEG scans and you will receive a ZIP of DOCX files (or, optionally, a single concatenated DOCX).
What is the largest JPEG I can convert?
+
Free accounts have a size limit that varies by file type; PRO accounts allow much larger files and multi-page TIFF batches.
Is the JPEG to DOCX conversion free?
+
Yes, within the free size limit. PRO unlocks batch jobs, additional OCR languages, and higher-fidelity layout reconstruction.
Does PDF.to keep my JPEG image?
+
No. The JPEG upload and the resulting DOCX are both deleted within an hour. OCR runs in an isolated worker.
Will the DOCX be searchable?
+
Yes — the recognized text becomes a real text layer in the DOCX, so search-and-replace, copy-paste, and find-in-document all work.
Can I edit the DOCX in Word, Pages, or Google Docs after conversion?
+
Yes. The output is a standard DOCX compatible with every major editor; open it like any other DOCX and edit normally.
