OCR scanning is the process of converting the words on an image into machine-readable, editable text.
An OCR (optical character recognition) scanner is a device that scans a physical document (e.g., a printed resume or a driver’s license), creates an image, and puts the words into a digital format.
Common uses for OCR scanning include digitizing patient records and depositing paper checks online.
OCR scanning is one of many ways to convert an image to text. QuillBot’s image to text converter is a web-based option, and it’s completely free to use.

The term “hero” comes from theater, where a hero prop is an object crafted in full detail because it will be seen up close and is central to the scene. In web design, a hero image plays a similar role: it’s the most prominent visual on your page, capturing attention, conveying your main message, and guiding visitors toward key content. You can use QuillBot’s AI Image Generator to create hero visuals that stand out and complement your brand identity.

A full-screen hero image is typically sized at 1280 × 720 pixels with a 16:9 aspect ratio, ensuring clarity on most screens. However, depending on your site’s design and target devices, you might opt for larger dimensions, such as 1600 × 900 pixels or 1920 × 1080 pixels, to maintain image quality on high-resolution displays.
Always test your image across various devices to ensure it loads quickly and appears sharp. You can use QuillBot’s AI Image Generator to create high-quality visuals that fit your design, then adjust them as needed.
