Real app. Your choice of editor.
From scanned page to living text
Drop in a scanned PDF and OCR Studio reads every page with Apple Vision — then rebuilds it as clean, editable chapters. Made for real books, including Thai ones.
- ✓Thai-aware pipeline. Joins no-space Thai lines, stitches paragraphs across pages, and keeps your prose in one piece.
- ✓Header & footer filtering. Repeated page numbers and running titles are detected and removed automatically.
- ✓Chapter detection. Split a 700-page scan into chapters, then send them straight into your book.
- ✓Scan Studio. Photograph pages with your iPhone — perspective fix, gutter split, and de-warp turn photos into clean pages.
OCR is included in the app. Scan on iPhone or iPad; import scans on Mac.

Questions, answered
Is the app free, or is it a subscription?
EpubCraft is a paid app with a one-time purchase, not a subscription. Check the App Store for the current price in your region before purchasing. OCR Studio, Scan Studio and offline editing are included.
Can I use it on my iPhone, iPad or Mac?
Yes. EpubCraft is available for iPhone, iPad and Mac. The App Store lists the current system requirements and compatibility for your device. Camera capture is available on iPhone and iPad; on Mac, import existing photos or scanned PDFs.
Where are my files stored?
On your device. EpubCraft is fully client-side — parsing, editing, OCR, and export all run locally. There is no account, no server, and no upload. The one optional exception: the Thai word-segmentation helper for zero-width spaces calls an online tokenizer.
What can I import?
EPUB, DOCX, Markdown, plain text, and EpubCraft Project ZIP backups. Imported EPUBs round-trip cleanly — internal links keep working after you edit and re-export.
Does OCR work with Thai books?
Yes — it's a first-class use case. OCR Studio uses Apple Vision and adds a Thai-aware pipeline: no-space line joining, cross-page paragraph stitching, and repeated header/footer removal. It works with any language Apple Vision recognizes. OCR requires the Mac/iPhone/iPad app.
Can it make Kindle and Kobo books?
Yes. Kindle KFX and Kobo KEPUB export run the full EPUB pipeline, then convert on your device — no command-line tools, no online converter.
Is the web version free?
Yes — the web app at epubcraft.pages.dev is free to use in any modern browser. The native app for Mac, iPhone, and iPad is on the App Store; it adds OCR Studio, Scan Studio, offline use, and native file handling.
