Upload your [**PDF**](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/95132/how-can-i-view-a-pdf-file-without-downloading-in-android) file and make any necessary adjustments to the optional options. Choose 'Convert' if your PDF contains editable text. Choose 'Convert using OCR' if you have a scanned PDF that needs to be edited. To better the OCR result, you can choose the language used in your file.

- Please upload a **PDF file**.
- If your document does not contain any scanned images, select **Convert.**
