How to convert a PDF to text
Drop the PDF above and press the button. EditZap reads every page, keeps the line breaks and marks each page with a “--- Page N ---” separator, then shows you the result and downloads a plain .txt file encoded in UTF-8. You can also copy the whole thing to the clipboard in one click.
Free, private and instant
The extraction runs in your browser with no upload, no queue and no account, so even long or confidential documents stay on your device. One limit worth knowing: scanned PDFs are pictures of text, so a page with no embedded text layer will come out empty — that needs OCR, not extraction.
