Extract text from PDF files with our free online tool. Quickly convert PDF documents into editable text that you can copy, edit, or save. This tool processes your PDFs directly in your browser for maximum privacy.
Important Note: This tool works best with PDFs containing selectable text. The extraction quality may be limited for scanned PDFs, complex layouts, or documents with unusual fonts. For optimal results, use well-formatted PDF documents.
Security Note: This extractor runs entirely in your browser. Your PDF files are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security of your documents.
Our PDF Text Extractor uses advanced PDF parsing technology to analyze PDF documents and extract text content. Simply upload your PDF file, and our tool will process it to identify and convert any text it contains into editable format. The extraction process runs entirely in your browser.
Our tool supports standard PDF files. For best results, we recommend using PDFs with selectable text rather than scanned documents. However, the tool will attempt to extract text from all PDF types.
Yes, you can upload PDF files up to 10MB in size. For larger files, we recommend splitting them into smaller documents first or selecting only the pages you need to extract text from.
The accuracy depends on the type of PDF. For PDFs with selectable text, extraction is typically very accurate. For scanned PDFs (image-based), the accuracy may be limited as it relies on OCR technology. The tool works best with clearly formatted documents containing standard fonts and simple layouts.
Yes, we take data security seriously. This tool processes your files entirely in your browser - your PDFs are never uploaded to our servers. This means your sensitive documents never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.
Our tool currently supports extracting text in multiple languages from PDF files, as long as the text is selectable in the original document.
Extracting text from PDFs is useful for many purposes: making PDF content editable, copying text from protected PDFs, preparing content for analysis, creating searchable archives, or repurposing content from PDF documents for other uses.
No, we don't store any of your files. Since the extraction happens entirely in your browser, your PDFs never reach our servers. Once you close the browser tab or navigate away, all processed data is automatically cleared from your browser's memory.
