OCR PDF

Extract English printed text and optionally add a searchable layer to scanned PDF pages.

PDF rendering, OCR, and searchable-PDF creation happen in this browser. The worker, WASM core, and English model are self-hosted; no CDN or OCR service receives your document.

English printed text

The first run loads roughly 7 MB of local OCR assets and caches the English model in this browser. Handwriting and decorative fonts are not reliable.

Review important text

OCR is probabilistic and can misread names, numbers, and tables. Confidence is a clue, not proof of accuracy.
