Text PDF vs. scanned PDF

A PDF made by software contains real text and converts straight to editable Word. A scan is just a picture of a page — it has no text layer, so Word would only see an image. That is why scanned files need OCR first.

Free OCR for scans

Our OCR is free for everyone, including guests, within per-plan limits. Run it to add a text layer, then convert — you get editable text instead of a locked image.

About the layout

We preserve layout where possible; heavily designed pages with columns and boxes may need light cleanup after conversion. Your files are processed temporarily and deleted automatically — there is no general cloud storage.
