Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is it safe to extract text from my PDF here?

Absolutely. All processing happens in your browser, so your files never leave your device. We do not upload or store any of your documents, ensuring complete privacy.

Will the formatting be preserved in the TXT file?

The tool focuses on extracting the raw text content. While it tries to maintain basic structure like paragraphs, complex formatting (like tables and columns) will not be preserved in the plain text output.

Can this tool extract text from scanned PDFs (OCR)?

Currently, our tool works best with text-based PDFs. It does not support Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for scanned documents or images within the PDF.
