Are PDFs uploaded to a server?
No. Reading and conversion happen entirely in your browser; the file is never sent to a server.
Does it work with scanned image PDFs?
PDFs without selectable text cannot be converted. Scanned image PDFs require OCR.
Are tables and multi-column layouts exact?
Complex tables, multi-column layouts, and decorative designs may not preserve their order and structure perfectly.
Is there a file-size limit?
For reliable in-browser processing, files are limited to 50 MB and documents to 500 pages.
