[1] Never expires

[2] Monthly reset, no rollover

Confirmed 75 package and 73 monthly subscription capacities; subscriptions start at 1,000 credits. The table says 10 free credits/day while the footer says 10 conversions/day; this conflict does not establish 10 PDFs. PDF-to-Office has a 4-credit base and longer processing incurs more, replacing the historical mixed minutes/count description.

Cancellation, sources & verification record

Monthly subscriptions can be cancelled anytime without a minimum term; remaining credits expire when changing subscriptions. Optional package auto-refill must be enabled separately.

Severe deceptive interstitial ad trap: clicking 'Start conversion' immediately triggers a full-screen Google AdSense vignette modal featuring a giant green 'DOWNLOAD EXTENSION — 2 Easy Steps: 1. Click Download 2. Add Trusted Spot Extension' button (03_ad_modal.png) that hijacks the user's download flow and opens a third-party tab requesting browser notification permissions; users must click the tiny 'Close' button in the top-right corner to reveal the real blue Download button (03_download.png).

Text was retained but tables were not editable grids; a sharing prompt appeared during conversion.

Original historical observation

PDFgear stays true to its 100% free philosophy—offering both Standard and Advanced OCR modes without login (02_workspace.png) and exporting a 16.0 KB .docx with 100% text retention and instant deletion (03_download.png); its only drawbacks are a 'Share to Continue' prompt with a faint gray 'skip' button (03_share_modal.png) and paragraph-based rather than native <w:tbl> table reconstruction.

Suited to text extraction from simple PDFs; the historical record shows lost tables and disrupted reading order.

Original historical observation

11zon finishes in 3.2s without login and extracts 100% of raw text strings, but outputs a legacy Word 97-2003 OLE2 .doc binary that flattens the 4×4 table and interleaves Page 2 lines into Page 1.

Suitable uses · historical assessment

Quick raw text extraction from simple single-page PDFs when legacy .doc format is acceptable
