Frequently Asked Questions

Is my PDF safe?

Yes. All text extraction happens entirely within your browser using PDF.js. Your PDF file is never uploaded to any server.

Does it work with scanned PDFs?

No. This tool extracts text from PDFs that contain embedded text. Scanned image-based PDFs require OCR (Optical Character Recognition) which is not supported here.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no strict limit, but very large PDFs (hundreds of MB) may cause performance issues depending on your device memory.

Can I extract text from password-protected PDFs?

No. Password-protected or encrypted PDFs cannot be processed. Please remove the password first using a PDF unlocker tool.
