About this tool
Drop a PDF and extract its selectable text page by page. Search the extracted text, copy a single page or the whole document, and download a clean TXT file. Works locally in your browser.
Frequently asked questions
Does this use OCR?
No. This reads selectable text embedded in the PDF. Scanned image-only PDFs need OCR before text can be extracted.
Can I copy one page at a time?
Yes. Select a page in the sidebar, then copy that view. You can also copy or download the whole document.
Are my PDFs uploaded?
No. Text extraction happens locally in your browser and your PDF never leaves your device.
