FAQ

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

No. Scanned PDFs are just images. You need OCR to extract text from them.

Is the formatting preserved?

Basic line breaks are preserved, but complex layouts may not translate perfectly.

Can I extract from password-protected PDFs?

Only if you have the password to decrypt it first.

Are my files uploaded or stored?

No. Your files are processed locally in your browser and are not uploaded or stored by this site.
