PDF to TXT Converter
Files are processed locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to a server.
OCR will use this later. Stage 1 extracts embedded text only.
Prevents image-based compression. Best for reports, papers, invoices, forms, and text PDFs.
Choose either the text box or uploaded TXT files, not both.
Image order
Drag images to reorder them before creating the PDF.
TXT file order
Move TXT files up or down. Convert one file, convert all files individually, or combine them into one PDF in this order.
