About
Cisdem PDF Converter OCR converts PDF files into formats such as Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, iWork (Pages, Keynote, Numbers, on macOS only), images, HTML, RTF, and TXT. The site says it aims to keep the original text, images, tables, and layout intact, so converted files closely match the source document. It can also create PDFs from Word, PowerPoint, Excel, images, HTML, and other formats.
For scanned documents, the app uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract text and turn scanned PDFs or images into searchable PDFs or editable documents. It can detect scanned files automatically, batch process them, and recognize many languages, including English, Chinese, Spanish, Arabic, French, Russian, Portuguese, German, Japanese, and Korean, as well as multi-language documents.
Additional tools include converting selected pages, batch converting multiple PDFs at once, setting passwords, size, and quality for output PDFs, and combining multiple files into a single PDF.
