PDF to Text Extractor
Extract plain text from text-based PDFs in your browser. Best for digital PDFs, not scanned image-only documents.
This tool extracts selectable text from PDFs. If the PDF is only scanned images, OCR is not performed and the output may be empty.
Ready. Upload a PDF and choose a page range if needed.
Text extraction only
This page uses PDF.js to read actual text objects from a PDF. It does not perform OCR on scanned pages. That makes it fast and private for digital PDFs, but image-only documents may return little or no text.
Good use cases
Extracting contract text, notes, reports, slide copy, and archived documents where the text layer already exists.
Private browser processing
Your PDF is parsed locally in your browser. No file upload is required.
