How reading works
Drop an image or PDF
Photos, scans and multi-page PDFs all work. No save dialog, no account.
We read the page
Layout, tables and structure are preserved — not just a flat dump of words.
Copy, export or send
Text, Markdown or CSV out — or push the originals into a transfer.
Frequently asked
→Does it work on any PDF?
Yes — upload any PDF. The high-detail engine OCRs each page image, so it handles both image-only files and born-digital PDFs equally.
→Will the edited PDF look like the original?
Yes — the original page image is kept and the recognised text sits in a searchable layer over it.
→Can I edit forms?
You can edit visible text. Fillable AcroForm fields are on the roadmap.
