About
Why pdf tools exist
PDFs are the one document format everyone can open — which is why contracts, invoices, resumes and reports all end up as PDFs. The problem is doing anything with them usually means paid software.
These tools handle the everyday jobs — merging, splitting, converting, compressing — entirely in your browser. Sensitive documents like contracts stay on your device the whole time.
Which PDF jobs matter most?
- ✓
Merging — One combined file beats ten attachments — for applications, contracts and reports.
- ✓
Compressing — Email attachments bounce over ~25MB; compression fixes that instantly.
- ✓
Converting to Word — Turn a locked PDF into editable text instead of retyping pages.
- ✓
Splitting — Extract just the pages someone needs instead of sending the whole document.

Common mistakes
- ✗Trying to merge or edit a password-protected PDF — unlock it first.
- ✗Assuming a scanned PDF has real text — scans are images; they need OCR.
- ✗Sending a 50-page document when three pages were needed — split first.
Tips that actually help
- ✓Name files 01, 02, 03 before merging so the order is automatic.
- ✓Compress before emailing — many mail servers reject attachments over 20–25MB.
- ✓Keep the originals until you've checked the output page by page.
FAQ
PDF Tools — questions, answered
Is it safe to process confidential PDFs here?+
Yes — PDFs are processed locally in your browser tab. Nothing is uploaded, stored, or shared, so contracts and sensitive documents stay private.
Can I merge PDFs in a specific order?+
Yes. Add your files, arrange them in the order you want, and merge — the output keeps exactly that sequence.
Do converted documents keep their formatting?+
Conversions preserve text and layout as closely as the format allows. Complex layouts with heavy styling may need small touch-ups afterwards.
Why won't my PDF process?+
The most common cause is a password-protected or corrupted file. Open it in a reader first; if it needs a password, unlock it before using the tools.
How many PDFs can I merge at once?+
There's no fixed limit — it depends on your device memory. Dozens of normal documents merge fine; hundreds of huge files may take a while.
