Even a scanned PDF
A scanned page is first read by character recognition: its text becomes as correctable as that of a PDF made in a word processor.
How it works
Three steps, nothing more.
Step 01
Drop your PDF, even a scanned one.
Step 02
Run the check, then accept or reject each correction.
Step 03
Download the corrected PDF, and the corrected Word document for touch-ups.
What sets it apart
Built for the result.
02
The Word document with it
You also get the corrected Word version of your PDF: if its layout drifts from the original, you touch it up before exporting again.
Accepted formats
Drop them as they are, no conversion needed first.
Privacy
What happens to your document
Your document stays yours: it is only used for the correction you ask for, never kept or shared, and everything is erased within the hour.

It follows the original as closely as it can, but may differ, especially for a complex design. The corrected Word version comes with it, for touch-ups.
