Frequently Asked Questions
Is my data secure?
100% secure. All processing happens locally on your machine, right inside your browser. Your files are never uploaded to any server, database, or cloud. Once you close the tab, the data disappears.
Which PDF files are supported?
- Standard PDFs: Extracts native text, images, and tables.
- Scanned PDFs: Built-in OCR processes textless pages.
- Password-Protected PDFs: Safely prompts for passwords locally.
- Academic PDFs: Parses LaTeX formulas & multi-column layouts.
- Corrupted Font PDFs: Renders gibberish pages as high-quality images.
Why does the extraction fail or look scrambled on some PDFs?
This tool is not magic. The quality of the markdown output depends entirely on the formatting and internal layout structure of the PDF file you upload.
If a PDF has corrupted font encodings, highly compressed image layers, or chaotic non-standard text boxes, no client-side algorithm can parse it perfectly. We always try our best to resolve layouts dynamically, but clean source files will always yield clean outputs.
Does this handle math & Arabic?
Yes. LaTeX math expressions (inline $...$
and block $$...$$)
are rendered beautifully using KaTeX. Arabic text is auto-detected and rendered
right-to-left with the Noto Naskh Arabic font. Switch to Rendered mode in the
viewer to see math and Arabic displayed properly.
What about corrupted fonts?
Some PDFs use custom-encoded fonts where standard letters are replaced by random symbols. LiteDoc automatically detects these unreadable text layers and provides options to render the affected pages as high-quality images instead of extracting gibberish.
