Why Extract Text from PDF?
PDF files are great for preserving document formatting, but extracting the text content can be challenging. Our PDF to Text converter makes it easy to pull out all the readable text from your documents for further use.
Text extraction is useful for:
- Copying content to other documents or applications
- Searching through document content
- Creating accessible versions of documents
- Analyzing or processing document text programmatically
- Archiving document content in a simple format
- Reducing file size when only text is needed
The extracted text is saved as a plain TXT file that can be opened in any text editor, word processor, or programming environment.
