Recognized English text is added as a selectable and searchable text layer.
Your PDF and recognized text stay on your device and are never uploaded.
The OCR engine and English model load only when you use this tool, not when using other PDF tools.
OCR components are cached after their first download so the tool can be used offline later.
Select the document language before running OCR. The page language is selected by default.
Pages are rendered into images before OCR, so original interactive elements and text formatting are flattened.
