About this tool

Extract an existing PDF text layer into a plain text file, page by page.

How to use

  1. Choose the local file you want to process.
  2. Set the available options, then run the tool.
  3. Inspect the result and download the output. Your original file is unchanged.
PDF processing stays in this browser. Password-encrypted PDFs are not supported. Save a copy: editing can invalidate digital signatures. Maximum input is 100 MB and 1,000 pages; image output has lower page limits. Scanned image-only documents need OCR; this tool does not infer text from pixels.
