Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why is some text missing or looking jumbled?
This can happen for a few reasons. If the PDF is an image-based scan (like a scanned book page), it contains no actual text data to extract. This tool works with PDFs that have selectable text. Also, complex layouts with many columns or tables might cause the text order to be jumbled.
Does this tool work on mobile phones?
Yes, absolutely. Our tool is fully responsive and designed to work seamlessly on modern web browsers on both desktops and mobile devices like phones and tablets.
Can it convert handwritten text in a PDF?
No. This tool is a text extractor, not an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) service. It can only extract computer-generated text that already exists as data within the PDF file. It cannot read handwritten notes or text within images.
Is there a file size limit?
While there's no hard-coded limit, very large PDF files (over 50-100 MB or with thousands of pages) might be slow to process or could cause your web browser to become unresponsive, as all the work is done by your device's processor.
