For google ranking can google now find out and penalize you if you have duplicate content text in your images that can easily be found online. And the words I will be using will not be just few words but 1-2 sentences in a single image on the sale page. The sentence I will be putting in images (with blank white/black background and text color of red/green/black). So based on this information, can google penalize me for duplicate content text in your images which are really images of just sentence with no background of things of any kind.
 


Well, that's a pretty good question. I know Google has added OCR to PDFs and Images in Google Drive. The Google Translate App also has a Picture to OCR to Speech function. So it would be in the realm of possibility that they have the capabilities to do it for their main search. Whether they do that or not yet is the question.

They may not at the moment, but since all the tools are backends are in place, they may in the future.

I believe, but don't quote me on this, they are still relying on the alt tag and surrounding text to get a better understanding of the photo. (Source: http://www.bluehatseo.com/check-mate-google-images/ via http://blindapeseo.com/resources/google-images-the-blue-hat-way)

My own conclusion, I don't think so now, but maybe in the future.​
