Scanned PDF Detected — Running OCR

This PDF contains images instead of text. Pages are being OCR'd directly in your browser — no data leaves your device.

Extracted Text
How It Works
  • Text PDFs — text is extracted server-side instantly.
  • Scanned PDFs — pages are rendered and OCR'd directly in your browser using Tesseract.js (WebAssembly). No scanned image data is uploaded.
  • Works on shared hosting — no server-side OCR engine needed.
  • Supports English and most Latin-script languages.
Privacy

For scanned PDFs, OCR runs entirely in your browser. The images are never sent to the server.
