About this tool

Some PDFs do not let you select text easily. This tool reads the text of each page and writes it into a Word file with page breaks, so you can copy, edit and reuse it. It works for text PDFs. Scanned pages are pictures and need OCR, which is not available yet.

Tips for best results

Works best with PDFs created from documents.
Scanned PDFs may give an empty result.
Review the text after copying.

Frequently asked questions

Is my file uploaded?

No. Everything happens inside your browser, so your file stays on your device.

Why is the result empty?

The PDF is probably a scan. Scans contain pictures, not text.

Does it keep tables?

No. Table text appears as plain lines.
