Extract Text from PDF

Instantly copy all text from your text-based PDF files. Secure, fast, and 100% free.

Unlock the Content Inside Your PDFs

PDF documents are perfect for sharing, but getting text *out* of them can be difficult. Manually copying text page by page is slow, and formatting often breaks. Our Free PDF Text Extractor solves this problem. It instantly reads the entire text layer of your PDF document and presents it as clean, simple, selectable text. This is perfect for repurposing content from reports, copying data from invoices, or extracting information from articles.

This tool is designed to work with native or text-based PDFs** (files originally created from a text editor like Microsoft Word or Google Docs). It reads the digital text embedded in the file, ensuring a 100% accurate extraction in seconds.
Please note: This tool is not an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) service. It cannot read text from scanned images, photos, or image-only PDFs.

Secure, Fast, and In-Your-Browser

Privacy is our top priority. Unlike other tools, our PDF Text Extractor works entirely in your browser using the powerful `pdf.js` library. Your file is never uploaded to any server. It is opened and processed locally on your own computer. This makes the process incredibly fast and 100% secure, even for sensitive documents.

Using the tool is simple: 1. Upload your PDF file. 2. Our tool instantly scans all pages and extracts the text. 3. The full text appears in an editable box. From there, you can click "Copy to Clipboard" to paste the text anywhere, or "Download as .txt" to save it as a new file. It's the fastest way to unlock the text content hidden inside your PDFs.
