Pulling the text out of a PDF

Morphr reads the text from your PDF and rebuilds it as RTF, giving you something to edit or reflow instead of a fixed page. The words and reading order come across; the original layout, fonts and images don’t. It only works on PDFs that contain real text — a scanned, image-only PDF has nothing to extract.

PDF and RTF, explained

PDF is the universal format for finished, fixed-layout documents that look identical everywhere. It is built for viewing, sharing and printing rather than editing. RTF (Rich Text Format) is a portable document format that keeps basic formatting and opens in virtually every word processor.

Good to know

The private way to turn PDF into RTF

With Morphr, the whole conversion runs inside your browser tab using Morphr's own engine, so your file is never uploaded to a server, queued, or stored. That makes it a safe choice for personal photos, scanned documents and anything you'd rather not hand to a third party.
