Questions about pdf to text
Use the right input.
Clear, well-lit text gives the OCR model more signal. These are the practical details that matter for this format.
Can I OCR a scanned PDF?
Yes. Upload a PDF up to 10 MB. OCRphoto sends the page content through its document-aware OCR flow.
Does PDF to text work on a PDF with selectable text?
It works best as an OCR fallback for scanned pages. For already-selectable text, copying directly may be faster.
Will a multi-page PDF keep page breaks?
The result keeps readable line breaks and adds page separators when the source makes them clear.
