How this works
This tool uses PDF.js to read the PDF file and extracts all text content, preserving the reading order. The text is then offered as a .txt download. Everything happens locally in your browser no upload to a server.
Common uses
Converting PDF reports or articles to plain text for easy copying, searching, or processing in other tools, or extracting text from scanned PDFs after OCR.
