Frequently Asked Questions

What is PDF OCR?

OCR converts scanned images of text into actual editable text. It's needed for scanned PDFs where text isn't selectable.

Is this private?

100% browser-based. PDF.js renders pages locally, Tesseract.js runs OCR via WebAssembly. Nothing is sent to servers.

Which languages are supported?

15 languages including English, Tamil, Hindi, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, and more.

How accurate is the OCR?

Accuracy depends on scan quality. Clean high-res scans typically achieve 90–95%+. The confidence score reflects this.
