FAQ:
Q: Does this work on scanned PDFs?
A: Scanned PDFs contain images rather than selectable text. For scanned documents, an OCR tool gives better results.
Q: Will the formatting (headings, tables) be preserved in the text output?
A: Plain text does not support rich formatting. The output contains raw text content without tables, fonts, or visual layout.
Q: Is my PDF uploaded to a server?
A: No. Text extraction runs locally in your browser.
Q: Can I extract text from a specific page range?
A: Yes. You can choose to extract text from the entire PDF or select specific pages.
Q: Is this tool free?
A: Yes, completely free with no subscription needed.
