Privacy & Security
No. The tools run entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your files never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.
No, we don't store any of your files or extracted text. The processing happens entirely in your browser, and everything is cleared once you close or refresh the page.
Technical Issues
Your PDF may be a scanned image without selectable text. Browser-based extraction works only on digital PDFs that contain text layers. We're working on adding OCR support for scanned documents in the future.
We support the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari. If you experience issues, try updating your browser or using a different one.
File size is limited by your device's memory and browser capabilities. Very large PDFs may process slowly or fail. If you encounter issues, try splitting the file into smaller chunks.
Features & Usage
Yes! On the PDF → Text page, you can enter a page range like 1-3,5,8
to extract only those specific pages.
Yes, our basic tools are completely free with no account required. We may offer premium features in the future, but the core functionality will remain free.
Currently, our tools process one file at a time. Batch processing is on our roadmap for future updates.
