Pull the words out of a PDF into plain, editable text. Load a file and the tool reads each page in your browser and gathers the text into one area you can copy with a click or download as a TXT file. This is exactly what you need to quote a passage, feed content into another program, run a search, or reuse text that is locked inside a PDF layout. Keep in mind that it reads the real text layer, so PDFs that are just scanned images with no text underneath will come back empty, since this tool does not run character recognition. For normal text based PDFs it works quickly and keeps the reading order page by page. All extraction runs locally with a PDF engine loaded in the page, so your document is never uploaded and your file stays private on your device.
