About PDF to Text

PDF to Text pulls readable content out of reports, statements and documents and saves it as a lightweight TXT file. Page breaks are marked so the original document structure remains easy to follow.

The extraction runs locally in your browser, making it useful for confidential documents that should never be uploaded to a conversion server.

Frequently asked questions

Does PDF to Text work with scanned documents?+

It extracts selectable text embedded in a PDF. Image-only scans require OCR and will be identified when no text is found.

Are my PDFs uploaded?+

No. PDF parsing and text extraction happen entirely on your device.
