The PDFixo OCR (Optical Character Recognition) tool uses advanced Tesseract AI models to 'read' the text inside of flat, scanned images. It converts un-selectable images into perfectly selectable, searchable text so you can copy and paste with ease.
Upload a scanned PDF document by dragging it into the zone or clicking 'Upload PDF'.
Click 'Extract Text'. Wait a few moments as the AI scans every page of your document.
Download your new, clean PDF containing all the extracted text.
