Create a Searchable PDF with OCR

A scanned PDF or a document photo is really an image; you can't search inside it. This tool recognizes the text with OCR and adds an invisible text layer over the image — the document looks the same but is now searchable with Ctrl+F and copyable. Turkish + English are supported and processing happens on your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a searchable PDF?

Upload your scanned PDF or document images; the tool recognizes the text with OCR and adds an invisible text layer over the image. In the resulting PDF you can search with Ctrl+F and copy text.

Does it work with Turkish characters?

Yes. OCR supports Turkish + English; characters like ş, ğ, ı, İ are converted correctly into searchable text.

Is my document sent to a server?

No. OCR and text-layer embedding run entirely on your device; your document is never uploaded.

Which files can I turn into a searchable PDF?

You can upload scanned PDFs and JPG/PNG document images; they're combined into a single searchable PDF.

Will the image quality degrade?

No. The original image is preserved exactly; the invisible text layer is added on top, so the page looks identical.
