Extract PDF links to CSV
Need a list of links hidden across a long PDF manual, report or catalog? Upload the PDF to scan its clickable link annotations page by page. The CSV records the source page, page label, web address or internal page target, and visible link text where it can be matched. Preview the first links, then download the complete report for an audit or handoff. It does not visit websites, extract embedded attachments or treat ordinary printed URLs as guaranteed clickable links.
How to use this tool
- Upload a PDF with clickable links, drag it into the upload area, or import a direct public PDF URL. Try the example with one website link and one internal page link.
- Create the report and review source pages, link kinds, targets, visible anchor text and unresolved entries in the preview.
- Download pdf-links.csv to review or share the link inventory. Website addresses are listed only; this tool does not open or test them.

Output and limitations
Extract clickable hyperlinks and internal page links from a PDF into a CSV with source pages, targets and visible anchor text for review.
Upload or drag in one unencrypted PDF up to 20 MB, or import a direct public PDF URL. The tool reads embedded link annotations and exports their one-based source PDF page, page label, web or email address, internal target page, visible anchor text when available, and status. It does not open or test websites, download linked files, extract attachments, or infer links from printed URL text that PDF viewers may make clickable automatically. Ambiguous internal destinations are reported as unresolved; unusual link schemes are reported without being opened. A link's visible text may be blank or approximate when the PDF structure does not identify it clearly. Limits: 1,000 pages, 5,000 link annotations and 20 MB CSV output. The original PDF remains unchanged. Local uploads are processed in your browser; URL import uses the existing protected service.
Does the CSV confirm that linked websites still work?
No. The PDF is read locally and no target URL is fetched. The CSV reports the address stored in each PDF link annotation, its source page and a status for internal destinations or blocked schemes. Use a separate link checker after reviewing the list if you need a live availability check.
Will it find every URL printed on PDF pages?
No. It inventories embedded PDF link annotations. A viewer can make plain URL text clickable even when the PDF contains no link annotation; those inferred links are not included. Bookmarks and embedded file attachments are separate PDF structures.
What if processing fails?
Check the supported formats and file limits, then try a smaller file. Keep an original copy. A clear error message will explain an unsupported input or an unavailable processing service.
