PDF to TXT FAQs
Does formatting carry over?
We focus on clean text. Headings and paragraphs become simple line breaks for easy reuse.
What about scanned PDFs?
Run OCR first to turn images into searchable text, then convert to TXT.
Is encoding preserved?
Yes. We export UTF-8 so accented and non-Latin characters stay intact.
