OCR a PDF, free
Scanned PDFs are just images — you can’t search or copy their text. PlinyPDF’s OCR recognizes the text and layers it back into the PDF so it becomes searchable and selectable. It recognizes English, Turkish, and Russian.
Your file is processed over an encrypted connection and deleted within 24 hours.
Frequently asked questions
Which languages can it recognize?
English, Turkish, and Russian. Pick the language that matches your document for the best accuracy.
What if my PDF already has text?
Pages that already contain selectable text are passed through unchanged — OCR is only applied to scanned pages.
What happens to my file?
It is processed securely and deleted within 24 hours, never used for training.
