- Scanned PDF? Make it searchable with OCR first
- Nothing is uploaded — safe for confidential documents
Questions
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
Run Make Searchable (OCR) on the ⌘ wheel first, then convert — the recognised text becomes editable.
Will the layout be identical?
Text and structure carry over; complex magazine-style layouts may need touch-ups.
