PDF Text Extractor
Extract all the text from a PDF file directly in your browser, with no upload to a server. Works with PDFs that contain real text (not scanned documents saved as images, which would require OCR).
How it works
- Select a PDF file from your device.
- The tool processes the PDF page by page using pdf.js, extracting the text from each one.
- The extracted text appears in the result panel, separated by page with markers like '--- Page 2 ---'.
- The total number of pages processed is displayed.
- Copy the extracted text or download it as a .txt file.
Use cases
- Extract the content of a PDF contract or report to edit or analyze it as text.
- Quickly copy the text from a PDF you can't open directly in a text editor.
- Prepare a PDF's content to paste into a search engine, translator, or other text tool.
- Get the text from several pages of a PDF for searching or analysis with another tool.
