Does the Google extension that scans text from a webpage work reliably for extracting content?

Yeah, the Google extension scans text from a webpage, but it’s definitely not flawless. I’ve found it works better on static sites, but anything with ads, pop-ups, or lazy loading just messes it up.

I’ve been using MarkDownload lately. It’s a Chrome extension that saves pages as Markdown files, and it’s been way more reliable for me. It even handles images and embedded content pretty well.

For text in images, you might wanna check out ABBYY FineReader. It’s a paid tool, but it’s one of the best OCR solutions out there.
