Can I extract specific pages?

Yes. You can extract text from all pages or specify a range of pages.

Is the text formatting preserved?

The extracted text maintains the reading order but may not preserve exact formatting like columns or tables.

The tool works best with text-based PDFs. Scanned image PDFs may not have extractable text.
