Extract selectable text from a PDF into a Word-compatible document. Scanned PDFs need OCR before their text can be edited.
This tool reads selectable text from a PDF and creates a Word-compatible document you can open and edit. It works best with digital PDFs. A scanned PDF is an image, so it needs OCR before its words can become editable text.
Review the finished result carefully before using it for office work, an employer, a school, the IRCC portal or another government website. Check page order, dates, names, signatures, readability and the file-size limit for the exact upload form. Keep your original file so you can make changes or provide a clearer copy later.
