Frequently Asked Questions
Can this convert scanned PDFs?
No. This tool extracts text from digital PDFs. Scanned or image-based PDFs have no extractable text — use an OCR tool instead.
Will images and tables be preserved?
No. Only text content and basic paragraph structure are extracted. Images, tables, and complex formatting are not included in the output.
Can I convert specific pages only?
Yes. Enter the page numbers you want to convert in the options field to extract text from selected pages only.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. Text extraction runs entirely in your browser. Your file is never uploaded to any server.
Why is the output formatting different from the original?
This tool extracts text and basic structure only. Complex layouts, fonts, and positioning cannot be reliably reconstructed in a browser-based tool.
