PDF to text

Read the text embedded in a PDF and copy or download it as a .txt file.

The file stays in this browser. Text is read from the PDF without uploading it.

Up to 25 MiB and 60 pages. Scanned PDFs contain no text to extract — this reads embedded text only.

How to use

  1. Choose a PDF.
  2. Extract the text.
  3. Copy the result or download it as .txt.

What it supports
