// frequently asked
Does it preserve headings, bullet points and tables?

Structure is rebuilt from what's actually in the PDF — the preview shows you the result before you commit.

What about scanned PDFs?

A flattened scan has no underlying text to rebuild from; the tool will tell you upfront rather than producing a fake result.

Is my file kept afterward?

No — files are auto-deleted within 12 hours regardless of whether you pay.
