About This App

PDF to Text is a utility app designed to convert PDF documents into plain text files, making content searchable and editable. It targets users who need to extract text from PDFs for further processing, data entry, archival, or reuse in other applications. The app serves both workflows involving digital PDFs with selectable text and potentially scanned or image-based documents.

PDF to Text appears to be a niche or specialised PDF conversion utility. We found no recent evidence in search results of ongoing development, native Apple Silicon support, or active vendor presence for this specific app. Apple itself includes free PDF text extraction directly in Preview (a native macOS tool available on every Mac), and the September 2028 removal of Rosetta 2 makes relying on Intel-only software increasingly risky. If you use PDF to Text regularly, we recommend testing whether macOS Preview meets your needs — open any PDF, go to Tools > Text Selection, select and copy the text, then paste it into your editor. For scanned PDFs requiring optical character recognition (OCR), actively maintained native alternatives with confirmed Apple Silicon support include Prizmo (specialises in multilingual OCR) and Adobe Acrobat Pro (comprehensive PDF handling). Contact the PDF to Text vendor directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned, as the Intel-only version will stop running after macOS 28 ships in September 2028.
