Frequently asked questions

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

Scanned pages are images — use our OCR PDF tool for those instead.

Is formatting preserved?

Plain text is extracted; complex layouts may lose formatting.

Private by design: PDF to Text runs entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to any server.
