After learning about OCR applications and format conversion, I must say fileeagle.com converts the most standard file today. With the same image I tested, fileeagle.com converts image to excel to 90% standard. This page supports converting the following file formats:
- PDF -> Word
- PDF -> Excel
- PDF -> PowerPoint
- PDF -> JPG
- PDF -> RTF
- Word -> PDF
- Excel -> PDF
- JPG -> PDF
- Visio -> PDF
- CDR -> PDF
- JPG -> Word
- JPG -> Excel
- JPG -> TXT
Including converting PDF, Word, JPG back and forth. What I like most about this website to convert images to Excel is that it supports almost 100% standard Vietnamese. Compared to fastdoc and aspose, fileeagle is far ahead in terms of formatting and OCR.
You can Upload a photo or enter the link of the image to be transferred, then select the language English then press Convert
Wait a few seconds, you can download the excel file containing row/column information and Vietnamese text as shown in the picture. Then click the file in the Result to download the excel file to your computer.
Advantages:
- Convert the correct row/column format in the image
- Support Vietnamese standard 90%
- Free
- Support converting many formats JPG, PNG to word, excel
Defect:
- File processing time is a bit long
According to my personal assessment, Fastdoc will be superior in Vietnamese recognition but not good in column/row format. And fileeagle converts images to excel fairly standard in terms of rows and columns and Vietnamese (although it is a bit misspelled), and if you convert the English format and use it on your phone, you can choose aspose. The 3 websites that convert photos to excel I introduce all have their own advantages and disadvantages, you can try all 3 to get the best results.
