PDF OCR Studio

Turn scanned PDFs and images into searchable PDFs and editable text. Private OCR that runs entirely on your device.

PDF OCR Studio helps you get text out of scanned documents. Open a scanned PDF or a photo of a page, and the extension recognises the text and lets you copy it, edit it, or save it as a searchable PDF. Everything happens on your device. Your files are never uploaded, and no account is needed. How it works: • Open a file, drag it in, or right-click a PDF link • Choose your language and press Run OCR • Check the result next to the page, click any word to fix it, and use find and replace • Save your result as a searchable PDF, a Word document, or plain text Helpful details: • Works offline in English, French, German, Spanish and Arabic, with more languages available • Straightens crooked scans and improves faint or dark pages • Reuses text that is already in a PDF instead of scanning it again
