Frequently asked questions

Which document formats can I convert?

Working with DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ODT, HTML, or Markdown? These are among the supported inputs. Conversions depend on the source and destination format; converting a document to PDF is a common starting point. Check supported conversion pairs.

Can I turn a PDF into preview images?

Yes. The document thumbs Robot creates an image for each PDF page. Choose the pages, dimensions, and output format for your previews. See document thumbnail options.

Can I extract text from scanned PDFs?

Yes. The document extract Robot supports native text extraction and OCR. Choose the method for your PDF; OCR quality depends on the scan, and OCR mode does not support encrypted PDFs. Explore PDF extraction options.

Can I merge several PDFs into one?

Yes. Use the document merge Robot and specify the order of your input files. If your originals are office documents, convert them to PDFs first. Learn how to merge PDFs.

How do I handle password-protected PDFs?

For native text or embedded image extraction, provide the password through the document extract Robot’s password option. Password support varies by operation, and OCR extraction currently excludes encrypted PDFs. Check the extraction requirements.

Where can I save the finished documents?

Export PDFs, previews, and extracted files directly to your own storage, including Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure. Add an export step because default result URLs are temporary. See how to save results.

How can I estimate and control costs?

Rates vary by operation and usage. Set a soft bill limit for alerts or a hard limit to stop processing. For larger workloads, ask about volume pricing and extra priority slots. Estimate your workflow costs.
