Extract text

Get the text of a PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint or photographed document, whole or page by page.

No internet needed to process

Everything happens on your device and your file is not uploaded to any server. The first time it downloads the language pack for reading text (about 15 MB) and saves it: after that it works without internet.

Processed on your device — the file is not uploaded to any server.

What it’s for: Get the text of any document (PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, .txt or a photographed document) to paste into an email, into Word or into a search box.

  1. 1Upload the file, or take a photo with your phone camera.
  2. 2Choose “All the text together” (you see it on screen and copy it) or “Page by page” (one .txt per page in a ZIP).
  3. 3Press “Extract text”.
