Free Online PDF OCR — Make Scanned PDFs Searchable
If you've ever tried to search for a word in a PDF only to realize the entire document is just a collection of images from a scanner, you know how frustrating it can be. Our OCR (Optical Character Recognition) tool scans the images in your PDF, reads the text, and overlays an invisible, selectable text layer back into the document.
Benefits of OCR
- Make PDFs Searchable: Press Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F) to instantly find keywords, names, or invoice numbers buried inside a 100-page scanned document.
- Copy and Paste Text: Stop retyping data manually. Select the text directly from the PDF and paste it into Word, Excel, or an email.
- Accessibility: Screen readers rely on text layers to read documents out loud to visually impaired users. OCR makes your scanned documents accessible.
