FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about PDF to XML conversion.

Is this PDF to XML converter really free?
Yes, completely free with no hidden fees, no subscription, and no account required. Convert as many PDFs as you like with no limits.
Is my PDF uploaded to a server?
No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your PDF file never leaves your device, so your data always stays private.
What does the XML output look like?
The XML is well-formed and structured by page. Each page element contains extracted text content, with optional metadata in the document header.
Can I convert password-protected PDFs?
Password-protected or encrypted PDFs cannot be converted. Please remove the password protection from your PDF first, then upload it.
What if my PDF is a scanned image?
This tool extracts embedded text from PDFs. If your PDF is a scanned image with no text layer, the XML output will contain empty page elements.
What XML encoding should I choose?
UTF-8 is recommended for most use cases as it supports all languages and special characters. Use ISO-8859-1 only for legacy systems that require it.
