NOTE: This service is hosted by Pure Contrast Tools, but powered by the open-source project Stirling-PDF.
It is provided for helpers, educators, and allies who are preparing documents for accessibility.
Why use this tool?
Many PDFs (especially scanned images) are completely invisible to screen readers. This tool allows you to fix them.
- OCR (Optical Character Recognition): Convert scanned images into readable text that screen readers can speak aloud.
- Merge and Split: Combine loose pages or separate large chapters for easier handling.
- Privacy First: We host this service ourselves. Your documents are processed on our encrypted server and deleted immediately. They are never sent to third-party cloud providers.
