Does it preserve formatting like paragraphs?

Yes. The OCR step respects paragraph breaks, lists and reading order so the audio sounds like a person reading the page, not random sentences.

Is the text-from-image-to-audio converter free?

Yes. Free for everyday use. Premium voices, longer files and batch processing are unlocked on paid plans.

How long can the audio be?

Free conversions support thousands of words per image. Paid plans push that limit much higher and allow continuous multi-page narration.

Can I edit the extracted text before generating audio?

Yes. After OCR you can review and edit the extracted text before the audio is rendered, so the narration is exactly what you need.
