Frequently asked questions

Can I extract text from scanned PDFs?

This tool extracts embedded text. For scanned PDFs (images), you would need OCR (optical character recognition) functionality.

Is the formatting preserved?

The tool extracts raw text content. Basic line breaks and paragraph structure are preserved, but complex formatting may be simplified.

Can I extract text from specific pages?

Currently this extracts all text. For specific pages, use the PDF Page Extractor first, then extract text from that subset.
