About this tool

Extract selectable text from PDF pages. PDFzoid's base release prioritizes browser-side processing to reduce uploads and keep hosting requirements light. Some advanced conversions will use secure temporary server processing in a later version.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account?

You can open and process files without an account. A free PDFzoid account is required only to download the finished result.

Are my files stored?

Browser-side tools process files on your device. When server-based features are introduced, PDFzoid will clearly label them and use temporary storage with automatic deletion.
