Frequently asked questions
Why is the text file empty?
The PDF is probably a scan, made of images with no text layer. Run it through OCR first, then extract the text.
Will the text keep columns and tables?
Plain text has no layout, so columns and tables are flattened into lines. Check the order of text in multi-column pages and edit it if needed.
What should I do with a scanned PDF?
Use an OCR tool first, because a scan has no text to extract. After OCR, the text can be extracted normally.
Is PDF to Text free?
Yes. PDF to Text on Toolipedia is free to use, with no sign-up and no watermark.
