What this tool does

Find likely phone numbers in PDF text, keep their original display form, and export page references as CSV.

PDF.js reads text content and page information; this tool transforms or filters that local data into the selected report.

Text extraction is not a substitute for reviewing the source. Complex layouts, unusual encodings, and ambiguous patterns can affect results.

Supported formats

Input must be a non-empty PDF. Password-protected or damaged documents are rejected. Output is UTF-8 text, Markdown, JSON, or CSV according to this tool.

Tips for better results

  • Use a focused page range for faster processing.
  • Check extracted values against the PDF before reuse.
  • For scanned pages, run OCR rather than ordinary text extraction.

FAQ

Can extract phone numbers from pdf process a scanned PDF?

Not directly. This tool reads selectable PDF text; use OCR PDF first for image-only scans.

Does the PDF leave my browser?

No. PDF parsing, recognition, extraction, and file creation happen locally in the browser.

Why might some text be missing?

Custom font encodings, damaged files, complex layouts, and image-only pages can prevent reliable extraction.

Can I process only certain pages?

Yes. Enter All, a range such as 2-5, or a list such as 1,3,7-9.

Will the output preserve the original layout?

No. The output focuses on useful text or extracted data, not exact visual layout reproduction.
