FAQs
Can it extract text from a scanned PDF?
It extracts selectable text, not text inside scanned images. Convert scanned pages with PDF to JPG or PNG, then use Image to Text for OCR.
Will columns and tables keep their exact layout?
Not always. PDF text order and spacing can differ from the visual page, so review important results against the source.
Are my PDF and extracted text uploaded?
No. The PDF is read and the text is prepared on this device.
Can I edit the result?
Yes. The extracted text is editable before copying or downloading the TXT file.
Can I extract only certain pages?
Yes. Enter all, a range such as 1-3, or a list such as 1,3,5.
