Frequently asked questions
Is this PDF to audio tool free?
Yes — completely free with no sign-up and no limit on how many PDFs you listen to.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. Text is extracted and read aloud entirely in your browser using its built-in voices — nothing is sent to a server.
Can I download the audio as a file?
No — this reads the PDF aloud live using your browser's speech engine. There's no server-side text-to-speech API involved, so there's no audio file to save. Use your OS's audio recording tool if you need to capture it.
Why isn't anything read from my PDF?
The PDF likely has no selectable text — usually because it's a scan. Run it through the OCR PDF tool first to add a text layer, then try again.
Which voices are available?
Whatever voices your browser and operating system provide. Chrome, Edge and Safari all ship several; more can usually be added in your OS's language settings.
