OCR PDF
OCR PDF uses the open-source Tesseract engine to recognize text on scanned or image-based PDF pages. You can copy the result as plain text, download it as TXT, or download a searchable PDF that keeps the original look while making its text selectable and searchable. No generative AI or paid cloud service is used — recognition runs in your browser.
