Give a PDF collection a useful second life
Scanned PDFs often contain pictures of pages instead of selectable text. Batch PDF OCR extracts the words so you can work with them in an editable document or plain text file. It can help with scanned reports, books, research material and document archives.
Choose sample pages that reflect the whole collection: include a typical page and any difficult columns, small print or tables. Checking these pages first makes it easier to agree what to expect from the full project.
Test a page with free PDF OCRKeep the document together or separate its pages
Tell us how you intend to use the recognized text. We can discuss Word or plain text delivery with the grouping your project needs.
A result for each page
Request separate Word documents or text files when you need to review, organize or reference individual pages.
Text extraction is different from reproducing the PDF layout. Review columns, tables, headings and reading order in the sample before agreeing the full conversion.
From a sample to a complete collection
For a few pages, the free PDF OCR tool accepts PDFs up to 200 MB and 750 source pages and processes one chosen page or area per request. For a larger collection, arrange a sample and a project quote.
