Can I extract numbers and text from a scanned financial statement PDF?

Yes. Deliteful's OCR tool recognizes printed text — including figures, labels, and narrative sections — from scanned pages and writes them into an editable Word document. You can then copy data into Excel or review it in Word.

Does OCR preserve table formatting from scanned statements?

No. The output is plain extracted text. Columns, row alignment, and table borders are not reconstructed. Numbers and labels are extracted as text paragraphs, which you can reformat manually.

How many scanned PDFs can I convert to Word at once?

Up to 50 PDFs per batch, with each file up to 300 MB and a 2 GB total batch limit. Each PDF generates one DOCX output file.

How accurate is OCR on printed financial documents?

Accuracy is high on clean, typed, high-contrast scans — typical for printed bank statements and tax forms. Faded, low-resolution, or skewed scans will yield lower accuracy. Always verify extracted figures before using them in financial work.

Extract Text from Scanned Financial PDFs into Editable Word Documents

Scanned bank statements, prior-year tax returns, and client-supplied financial records often arrive as image PDFs with no extractable text — forcing manual data entry or expensive reprocessing. Deliteful's PDF OCR → DOCX tool converts those scans into editable Word documents, giving you recoverable text you can work with directly.

Accountants and CPAs regularly encounter older client records, paper-originated statements, and scanned receipts that exist only as image PDFs. Before any figures can be reviewed, cross-referenced, or entered into a working document, the text must be accessible. OCR eliminates the transcription step by automatically recognizing and extracting the printed text into a .docx file ready for editing or reference.

Deliteful processes each PDF individually and outputs one DOCX per file. Batch submissions support up to 50 PDFs at once (300 MB per file, 2 GB total per batch). Output is plain extracted text — table structures, column alignment, and visual formatting are not preserved. For recovering figures, narrative disclosures, or form fields from scanned documents, this tool delivers editable text quickly and without desktop software.
