OCR that keeps the math

Most PDF-to-Word converters handle text well and equations badly: they come out as images or strings of symbols. Here every page is read by a math-aware OCR, so equations become native Word equations you can click and edit.

For a PDF with a clean text layer and no math, any free converter will do; this one is for scans, lecture notes, papers and worksheets.

What to expect

Content, order, tables and equations carry over; exact layout, columns and fonts do not. Failed conversions return their credits.
