What changes

  • PNG is rasterized or read page-by-page and AI Deep Read produces EPUB text for png-to-epub.
  • AI Deep Read uses 1 credit per page and is not available anonymously; sign in and see /pricing for credit packs.
  • The organization-configurable model transcribes visible text, headings, lists, forms, checkboxes, captions, and tables in reading order.
  • OCR does not recover hidden text layers, passwords, redacted content, embedded files, comments, or document metadata.
  • EPUB output favors clean semantic text over exact visual positioning.
  • Illegible regions are marked instead of invented; scans, handwriting, skew, and low contrast affect accuracy.

curl
curl -X POST https://filetypeconverters.com/api/v1/convert \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FTC_API_KEY" \
  -F "file=@input.png" -F "from=png" -F "to=epub" \
  -F "deepRead=true" \
