Is my PDF scanned? Free PDF checker
Pick a PDF to see how many pages it has and, page by page, whether it holds real text or is only a picture of a page. The check runs in your browser: the file is never uploaded, stored or sent anywhere.
Why it matters
- Digital pages carry their text, so you can search and copy them. Their tables still tend to come out as one long jumbled line when pasted into Excel.
- Scanned pages are photos of paper. Search, copy and most PDF-to-Excel converters find nothing on them unless they read the image itself.
Aoken Extract handles both: it reads every page, rebuilds the tables and checks that totals add up. See pricing.
