PDF Extractor for tables, images, OCR, and clean PDF assets

PDF Extractor turns PDFs into usable tables, images, OCR text, captions, and layout elements. Use the web app, API, or offline desktop app.

What PDF Extractor does

PDF Extractor pulls useful structure out of PDFs: tables, images, figures, captions, formulas, text blocks, headers, footers, and OCR transcriptions.

Structured table and OCR output

Use table extraction to export CSV, Markdown, or HTML, and use advanced OCR to return Markdown or JSON for scanned pages.

Web app, API, and offline desktop

Start in the browser, automate PDF extraction with the REST API, or use the desktop app when files need to stay local.

Extract visual elements instead of flattening the page

Layout detection separates images, tables, formulas, captions, titles, body text, headers, footers, footnotes, and list entries. Each output keeps its page, category, and reading-order position so people and downstream systems can trace it back to the PDF.

Choose the PDF extraction workflow that fits

Use the free web workflow to test a document, move recurring jobs to the PDF extraction API, or download the desktop app for private and high-volume local processing on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
