Helpful answers
Are my PDFs uploaded to a server?
No. Text recognition runs on your device. Files are not uploaded or stored by Utilnivo.
How accurate is OCR?
Accuracy depends on scan quality, fonts, and language. Review extracted text before relying on it.
How many pages are supported?
Up to 20 pages per PDF. Large scans may take longer on slower devices.
Will OCR make my scanned PDF editable like Word?
OCR adds a text layer for search and copy. For full editing, convert to Word after OCR—and expect cleanup on complex layouts or poor scans.
