Frequently Asked Questions
What does searchable PDF mean?
A searchable PDF contains the original content plus an invisible text layer recognized by OCR. This allows you to search, copy, and select text in the PDF – just like in a normal text document.
What's the difference from PDF to Text?
With PDF to Text, you get the recognized text as a plain TXT file. With PDF to Searchable PDF, the original PDF is preserved visually but gains an additional searchable text layer.
Which languages are supported?
26 languages are supported, including English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Russian, and many more.
Are my PDFs stored on the server?
No, your PDFs are deleted immediately and automatically after conversion. We don't store any files and don't keep logs.
