Extract Text from PDF
Drag & drop your PDF file here, or click to browse. All text extraction runs locally in your browser — no upload, 100% private.

Extracting text means pulling the written content out of a PDF so you can copy, edit, or reuse it elsewhere — in a document, email, or translator. Instead of retyping a page by hand, you get the actual text in seconds. This works on PDFs that already contain real text (for scanned image-only PDFs, use the OCR tool instead).
With Doctor PDF you open your PDF, browse the text page by page, see word and character stats, then copy it or download it as a text file.
Text extraction runs entirely inside your browser. Your PDF is never uploaded, so confidential documents stay completely on your device.
Because there is no server, extraction is instant, works on files of any size, and has no daily limits.
Tired of ads, file limits, and uploading your documents to a stranger's server? Doctor PDF is built differently:
