What is PDF Text Extraction?

PDF text extraction reads the text layer embedded in a PDF document and outputs it as plain text. This is useful for copying content from PDFs that restrict selection, indexing document content, converting PDF reports to editable text, or processing document content programmatically. The extraction uses pdf.js and runs entirely in your browser.
