Access the edited text from st.textarea

After you edit to the text area, extract_button becomes False and you no longer have a text area nor a download button and nothing is downloaded. You can try something like this instead.

extract_button = st.button("Extract text")
if extract_button:
    st.session_state["text"] = "OCR text with a lot of errors and need to edit it "

if "text" in st.session_state:
    st.text_area("Output is: ", key="text", height=220)
    st.download_button(
        label="Download data as docx",
        data=st.session_state["text"],
        file_name="output.docx",
        mime="docx",
    )
