Common questions
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
Scans are images, so table recovery needs a PDF with real text. Layers does not run OCR.
Will complex layouts be perfect?
Simple grids convert cleanly; heavily merged or nested tables may need a tidy-up.
Is it free?
Yes, within the daily task allowance.
