Searchable PDF

Make scanned PDFs searchable with local OCR.

Run English OCR in the browser so scanned pages can become a searchable PDF export without sending the document to an app server.

OCR export

Create searchable English OCR PDFs from scanned or image-heavy pages.

Page selection

Run OCR for selected pages when only part of the document needs text.

Local limits

OCR uses browser CPU and memory, so very large scans can take time.

For scans that need searchable text.

Use Slay PDF when a scanned invoice, form, report or archive needs searchable text but you do not want to upload the source file to a conversion site.

OCR quality depends on the scan quality. Clean, straight, high-resolution pages produce better searchable exports.
