Can I get the output in plain text (.txt) or Word (.docx) format?

No, you can only get the output in searchable PDF format.

What types of files can I upload?

You can upload only PDF files. Scanned PDFs are converted into searchable and selectable text with OCR.

Is there a limit for file size and page count?

Yes, you can process up to 50MB and 10 pages per file. Files above these limits are not accepted.

Can I process multiple PDFs at once?

Yes, you can upload multiple PDFs in batch OCR mode; the files are processed sequentially. Separate download for each file and ZIP download for all are offered.

How long does OCR processing take?

You can expect the first page to be processed in about 10 seconds, and 10 pages in about 1 minute. During processing, the waiting time can be between about 30 seconds and 2 minutes.

Where is the PDF I uploaded processed?
