Could you build this?

Partial While client-side PDF manipulation (merging, splitting, rotating) is easy with libraries like pdf-lib and PDF.js, high-fidelity format conversion (Word, Excel, PowerPoint to/from PDF) and client-side OCR without servers is technically arduous.

What it would actually take: The stack would rely on WebAssembly compilations of Ghostscript, MuPDF, LibreOffice (e.g., via WebAssembly/Emscripten), and Tesseract.js running inside Web Workers. The hard part is managing memory limits and achieving pixel-perfect document layout parsing entirely within the browser sandbox without crashing mobile or low-spec devices.
