PDF Text Extractor: OCR, Markdown, Page Checks

Try for free

Read your PDFs and get the text plus a verdict on every page — the file's own layer, OCR for scans at no per-page charge, or a row saying why it couldn't be read. A wrong layer is flagged, not passed off as clean. Full text or Markdown, page ranges, locked files, uploads. Failed files cost nothing.
