Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is the PDF to Text Converter free to use?

Yes — completely free, with no hidden fees, watermarks, or usage limits.

Is my data secure when using this tool?

Absolutely. All processing happens directly in your browser using JavaScript and Mozilla pdf.js. We never receive or store your files or extracted text.

What if the PDF has no selectable text (scanned PDF)?

If your PDF is a scanned image (not a digital text PDF), the extracted text may be empty or very limited. Scanned PDFs require OCR (Optical Character Recognition) which is not available in browser-based tools.

Does this tool work on mobile devices?

Yes. The PDF to Text Converter is fully responsive and works on all devices including smartphones and tablets.
