Copying text from a picture.

The quickest way: copy a screenshot, then paste it on the page.
Paste it.
Press Ctrl+V or ⌘V on the page with a screenshot copied; it is read straight away.
Fix it.
The text sits in a box you can change; Copy takes it as you left it.
Nothing kept.
The picture and its words stay on your device and are gone when you leave.
