PDF to Text
Read embedded text from selected PDF pages in your browser. Review page-separated output, correct reading order and download TXT. Scans require OCR.
Files and text are processed on your device. No account or upload is required. Keep your original file and check the result before sharing it.
Practical example
A two-page selectable-text invoice produces separate “Page 1” and “Page 2” sections. Enter 2 to extract just the second page.
Limits and troubleshooting
Unencrypted PDFs up to 50 MB and 200 pages; output up to 2 million characters. Reads embedded text, not scans, handwriting or image-only pages. Tables, columns and unusual fonts may lose reading order or characters; annotations and form fields are not included. For scans, render a page with PDF to PNG, then use image OCR.
If the file fails, try a smaller standard file or re-export it from its original app. Check the final download in your usual viewer before deleting or replacing anything.
