Free PDF to text
Extract complete, searchable text as clean TXT, structured Markdown, or page-aware JSON. Your upload uses encrypted durable storage when available and a private same-origin processor otherwise. Temporary sources are deleted after each attempt; durable checked results remain recoverable in this browser for up to six hours.

- Extract selected pages from one PDF or a whole batch as separate or merged results
- Choose natural reading order, physical layout, Markdown, or structured JSON with page geometry and OCR confidence
- Smart OCR recognizes only scanned pages in up to five languages while selectable text stays intact
- Optionally repair wrapped words, remove recurring headers and footers, preserve page boundaries, and verify every UTF-8 output with SHA-256
Short-lived by design
This tool uses open-source processors in a private temporary workspace that is deleted after each attempt. When durable storage is available, uploads are encrypted and resumable and checked results stay recoverable to this browser for up to six hours. If that storage is unavailable, the same-origin fallback returns the checked result directly. Failed or cancelled job files are removed immediately. Account storage is used only when you explicitly choose Save to Bookify.
