PDF Text & Image Extractor Offline

About

PDF Select & Extract Offline is a fast, privacy‑focused tool that allows you to extract text, tables, and images from any PDF directly inside your browser. All processing happens entirely offline, ensuring that your documents never leave your device.
The extension is designed for precision. When you select an area of a PDF, it extracts only the text that actually falls inside the selection, including partial words or mid‑line fragments. This makes it suitable for both structured and unstructured documents.
PDF Select & Extract Offline includes an advanced table‑recognition engine. It detects column positions based on text alignment, reconstructs rows accurately, and exports the resulting table in multiple formats. You can export tables as pipe‑separated CSV, as a “pretty” aligned ASCII table suitable for monospaced fonts, or as structured JSON where each row becomes an object with column names as keys.
The extension also supports image extraction. Any selected region of the PDF can be exported as a PNG image, making it easy to capture signatures, stamps, diagrams, or scanned portions that cannot be extracted as text.
All features work entirely offline. No uploads, no servers, no external APIs, and no internet connection are required. Your files remain fully private on your device.
