Your PDF stays in this browser and is not uploaded to PixelTextAI. Text already in the file is read here. Scanned pages use the in-browser OCR engine, which may download language files the first time you choose a language. The PDF reader may also load its helper from this site the first time you use it. The text file is created on this device.
