FAQs
My PDF came out empty — why?
Scanned PDFs are images, not text, so there's nothing to extract. Try the PDF to Text (OCR) tool instead — it reads scanned pages visually.
Is the layout preserved?
No. The JSON holds plain running text per page — column positions, fonts, and table structure are not preserved. It's built for data processing, not faithful re-creation.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. This tool runs entirely in your browser — your file is never sent to any server.
