I built TextLayer OCR after frustration with OCR tools destroying PDF forms. What makes it different: ✅ Preserves all pdf fields ✅ API-first design for automation ✅ Fixes pdf.js encoding errors ✅ Free tier Perfect for: - Legal documents - Forms - Contracts - Any scanned PDF that needs to stay editable Corrupted or incomplete PDF fonts can produce unreadable characters and inconsistent rendering across viewers. Most ‘fix’ approaches rebuild the PDF and can break forms and metadata. This API repairs font resources while keeping the original document structure intact.
