FAQ
Is OCR Scanned PDF really free?
Yes. No account or credits are required, and no paywall blocks the task. Browser, device, and stated file-size limits still apply. Ads may appear only when configured and enabled after the required consent signal.
Do I have to upload my files to use OCR Scanned PDF?
No. This tool reads and processes the selected file in your browser with pdf-lib and pdf.js engines loaded lazily; the implemented flow does not send it to a Tolari processing endpoint. The page may still request scripts or other resources from configured third parties.
What should I enter in "Lang"?
Put your lang here — for example: eng. Leave the defaults first to see how it works, then adjust. Every field is validated with a plain-language message if something is off.
How should I compare OCR Scanned PDF with other options?
Compare supported inputs, output quality, file-size limits, browser compatibility, and privacy terms using the same sample. Provider features and terms can change; check their current documentation.
How accurate is OCR Scanned PDF?
Conversions use exact defined factors (like 1 in = 2.54 cm); math tools show deterministic steps you can check by hand.
