PDF to Text

Extract text from PDF files. All processing happens in your browser using PDF.js.

How to Extract Text from PDF

Select a PDF file and click Extract Text. The tool uses PDF.js to read the text content from every page and displays it in a text area. You can copy the text or download it as a .txt file.

Limitations

  • Only works with digital PDFs that have a text layer
  • Scanned documents (images) will not produce text
  • Complex layouts may result in out-of-order text
  • For scanned PDFs, use an OCR tool instead
