About this app

“The best handwriting to text app”, “the most accurate handwriting OCR!”
Pen to Print is converting scanned handwritten notes into digital text available for editing, searching, and storage on any digital platform.
Use this unique OCR scanner to scan, recognize and convert handwriting to text that can be edited, searched, and stored on any device or cloud service. It’s a great cursive reader and makes reading illegible writing easier and faster.

Our unique handwriting to text OCR (Optical character recognition) engine extracts handwritten texts from scanned paper notes and turns them into digital editable text. Unlike other OCR scanner apps, it is designed specifically to recognize handwriting from image to text, and works great as a cursive reader and deciphering illegible handwriting.

Upgrade to a premium plan to edit your text, save it to files, copy it, email it (to yourself or to others), add to Notes, or share on messaging apps available on your device. We recommend starting by converting an image to text and trying the handwriting recognition for free, and only then purchasing a premium plan, after evaluating the quality of results the app provides in converting handwriting to text.

Although Digital text is easier to edit, search and store, handwriting on paper notes is still commonly used, since it's fast, easy, and accessible. Pen to Print's handwriting recognition (OCR) is an excellent solution for those who still like the feel of pen on paper, but want to enjoy the benefits of digital. It is easy to use, fast and affordable.
Converting handwriting to text with Pen to Print is a perfect solution for cursive reading and illegible writing, for students, for sharing meeting minutes, protocols, and other handwritten documents with multiple participants.

Please note:
The success of handwriting recognition relates directly to the quality of your scanned image. For best results scan your document in a well-lighted area, and make sure the paper is straightened and not folded or skewed. Verify that your image is focused and in decent quality. If unsuccessful, just try scanning again, it might make all the difference when converting the image to text.

The app currently supports Latin script only.
Our handwriting recognition system can convert different kinds of handwriting to text: block letters, cursive, and regular script.

Significant time and effort are invested in this app in order to provide an efficient quality handwriting-to-text OCR tool. We hope you find this app useful in transforming an image to text and enjoy using it to convert your handwriting to text. We welcome all feedback and are always happy to hear from our users.

The app works extremely well, and can pick up even my terrible handwriting with great accuracy. My only critique, and the reason for 4 stars, is that the "New Document" and "Add to Document" buttons are right next to each other, and on more than one occasion I've accidentally hit "New Document" and immediately lost everything I'd scanned and corrected. Adding an auto save function, or honestly even a pop-up asking if you want to discard your current document, would help workflow.

I appreciate that time and effort went into the creation of the app. But just as you have placed a value on your time, I value mine as well. So after going through the time of installing and then the processing of an image(which still required considerable editing on my part) only to find that what was put out as a free app requires payment in order to be of any use. This is just disingenuous. You take the time to point out how the app is ad free in the description but make no mention of how it is a useless waste of time unless you're willing to pay for the export. Very convenient that you left that part out. Seems like you're just counting on people thinking that they've invested enough of their own time in doing the conversion that in order to avoid a total waste of time, they'll throw some money at it to fix the problem. I'd rather just uninstall than reward such deceptive tactics.

Sorry you feel this way, no deception is intended, on the contrary - the app’s description clearly states that upgrading is required in order to export the extracted texts, so nothing is hidden or left out. The main objective is to allow you to try out the app and see its value before paying for it. Sorry you feel it's a waste of your time.

It does a good job of recognizing my handwriting. So it's core functionality seems pretty solid. However, I purchased the "premium" version ($4.99) expecting more features. It really just allows you to export. Not a lot of extra features for the money. I thought it would at least have some sort of list making capability. At least I can export to my notes app now, I guess.
