Local PDF Keeps the Converter on Your Computer
A browser-based PDF converter for Word, Markdown, images, and OCR, with files processed locally rather than uploaded.
Field notes
The page describes a client-side pipeline: users drop or paste a file, the browser extracts text and analyzes layout, scanned pages pass through PaddleOCR, and the result is downloaded with a report highlighting low-confidence pages. It lists six conversion directions, including PDF to Word, Markdown, and images, plus the reverse routes for documents and image sets. The stated language coverage exceeds 50 languages, while the page cautions that fonts are not embedded and large scans can exhaust phone memory.
