FAQ

Which quality should I choose?

150 dpi is good for most documents. Use 300 dpi for small print or photos, and 100 dpi when you need a small file.

Can I still select the text afterwards?

No. Each page is redrawn as an image, so the text becomes part of the picture. Keep the original if you need searchable text.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser.
