Frequently Asked Questions

Text extraction is generally very accurate for digital PDFs. ALL CAPS short lines are heuristically converted to headings. Formatting beyond headings (bold, italic, tables) is not inferred from PDF layout.
Scanned PDFs require OCR. For best results with scanned documents, use the OCR PDF tool first to make the document text-searchable.
No. Text extraction runs in your browser using pdf.js. Nothing is sent to any server.
Yes — use the Markdown to PDF tool to paste and edit the Markdown, then export back to PDF.
