Frequently asked questions
What formats can I get the text in?
Plain text, or Markdown with a heading per page so you can tell where each page starts.
Why did my PDF come back with no text?
It's a scan — an image of a page contains no machine-readable text. Run it through the OCR tool first to add a text layer, then extract.
