Frequently asked questions

Will this work on a scanned PDF?
Only if the PDF already has a text layer. Pure image scans need OCR, which this browser tool does not run.
Is layout preserved?
No. Text is flattened into paragraphs. Use this for copy, not for pixel-perfect reconstruction.
Page limit?
40 pages per run so the tab stays responsive.
Does the file upload?
No. Extraction runs locally.
