Extract Text from a PDF — Free & Private
Need the raw words without the layout — for quoting, translating, feeding to a script, or pasting into a document? This tool reads the PDF's actual text layer (no lossy conversion) and gives you a clean .txt file, with page markers so you can find your place.
If your PDF is a scan, there's no text layer to read — the tool will detect that and point you to OCR, which recognizes text from the page images instead.
