Converting PDF files to Text with Free PDF to Text Converter:

This free bulk PDF to text converter has a simple and neat interface that lets you choose which PDF files you would like to convert using either the folder method of selection or even the convenient drag and drop method of selection. So, you can bulk convert multiple PDF files to text files in one go. Each PDF file will be converted to its own separate text file (if you want to merge them in one, use a software called TXTCollector). The output folder or the destination folder can also be configured. The default output path is the Desktop. The option of saving the converted files in the source path is also allowed.

The conversion process was smooth and all the text was retained, save for a few formatting options such as typeface and paragraph alignment. But the output was brought out to the best resemblance of the original document’s text. Richly texted PDF documents such as the AP StyleGuide which was more than 400 pages had no issues being converted with all the text retained as per the document.

However, this free PDF converter does not allow other languages to be recognized by the software and so the appropriate font that is used does not change in the Text version of the document. This is because all converted documents appear as the default font in the output text file.

Conclusion

This is a simple PDF to Text Converter that has been the generic converting tool that we see in most similar software. It does lack deeper customization such as recognizing and preserving the font style. Other similar software such as PDFBus are able to convert a specific range of pages into text rather than the entire document which is a convenient feature that this PDF to Text converter has missed out on. Another feature that could set it apart from other free PDF converters would be the ability to convert more than one PDF document into a single text file. Overall, this free PDF to Text Converter offers a simple and easy way to allow editing of text through a text editor. It also supports PDF files which have restrictions on them such as ‘Content Copying’ and ‘Saving as Text’ which are not allowed. It is a neat and clean free PDF converter that provides basic, yet excellent functionality and ease of use.
