FAQ

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

No — it needs a text layer. Scanned pages are images; OCR is planned for our backend service.

How are headings detected?

By relative font size: text clearly larger than the document's body size becomes a heading, larger still becomes H1.

Are tables converted?

Not reliably yet — table cells come out as plain lines. Complex table extraction is on the roadmap.

Is my document uploaded?

No — extraction and conversion run locally in your browser.
