Learn how the tool works and when to use it.

The PDF to Text Converter extracts plain text from PDF documents using server-side processing. It supports selective page extraction, font handling controls, and configurable text cleanup for clean output.

Why Use This Tool?

Many PDFs contain valuable text that needs to be extracted for analysis, repurposing, or accessibility. This tool gives you precise control over extraction with options such as: specific page numbers or ranges, font space limits, horizontal offset adjustment, image content retention, font info inclusion, ignore-encryption flag, and decode memory limits for complex PDFs.

How It Works

  • Upload your PDF file via drag-and-drop or file browser.
  • Configure extraction options: page number, page limit, page range, page list, font space limit, horizontal offset, image content retention, font info inclusion, ignore encryption, and decode memory limit.
  • Click "Convert Now" to process the file on our server.
  • View extracted text with live word and character counts.
  • Copy the text to clipboard or download it as a .txt file.

Secure processing with no permanent storage of your uploaded files.
