Why Can't You Copy Text From Ebooks?
Copy limits and image-only pages make notes painful. TextMuncher automates Kindle Cloud Reader and gives you a manual OCR path everywhere else.
TextMuncher automates Kindle Cloud Reader extraction: the browser extension captures pages as screenshots, turns pages, and converts them to text with 97% OCR accuracy. If your book lives in another reader, take screenshots manually and upload them at textmuncher.com for OCR. It is not an automated capture tool for every platform.
Kindle Blocks Copy-Paste
Kindle Cloud Reader limits text selection and copying, especially when you need more than a short quote.
Other Readers Need Manual Capture
A browser extension cannot honestly promise automated capture across every ebook reader. Screenshots plus OCR are the reliable fallback.
Manual Methods Don't Scale
Screenshotting pages one by one and retyping text takes hours you don't have.
Automated Kindle Capture, Manual OCR Elsewhere
Built for Kindle Cloud Reader

Which ebook platforms does TextMuncher support?
The browser extension is built and validated for Kindle Cloud Reader. For other ebook readers, use TextMuncher's website upload flow: take screenshots manually, upload them to textmuncher.com, and OCR them there.
Does it work with library ebooks?
Not as automated extension capture. If your library reader displays the page on screen, take screenshots manually and upload them to textmuncher.com for OCR.
Can I extract text from PDF ebooks?
For PDFs, you can upload them directly to TextMuncher's web app at textmuncher.com for free OCR processing. The browser extension is designed for cloud-based readers that block copy-paste.
How does screenshot OCR compare to DRM removal?
Screenshot OCR reads what you can already view on screen instead of decrypting ebook files. TextMuncher automates that workflow for Kindle Cloud Reader; for other readers, you can still use the manual screenshot upload flow.
Is the extracted text accurate enough for academic citations?
TextMuncher achieves 97% accuracy on standard book text. For academic use, we recommend spot-checking quotes against the original. Page numbers aren't captured (since cloud readers don't always display them), so you may need to add those manually.
