Turkish, English, French, Spanish, German and Arabic.
Whenever possible, processing happens right in your browser (WASM) and your file never leaves your device. Only if your browser can't complete the job does it fall back to our secure server.
There's no limit — combine as many PDFs as you like, in order, into a single file.
Yes, after uploading you can move files up or down to set the order.
Upload your file, then specify page ranges or download every page as a separate file.
When more than one file is produced, they're all downloaded together as a single ZIP archive.
Yes, splitting doesn't recompress pages, so the original quality is preserved.
No. This tool runs entirely in your browser — your PDF never leaves your device and is never sent to our servers.
You can add text boxes, rectangles and freehand drawings. In multi-page documents you can annotate each page separately.
Yes, a Unicode font is used, so accented and non-Latin characters are written without any issue.
Yes, you can apply the rotation to all pages or to a single page.
Your original file stays unchanged after processing — a new output file is generated.
You can choose 90, 180, or 270 degrees.
Yes, you can freely adjust both the opacity and the angle.
Yes, the text you enter is added the same way to every page of the PDF.
The watermark is embedded into the document content, so to remove it you'll need to keep a copy of the original, watermark-free file.
It depends on the quality level you choose — balanced mode keeps visual quality largely intact while noticeably shrinking the file size.
It varies with the file's content (especially how image-heavy it is); scanned PDFs typically see the biggest reductions.
Yes, though the size savings on text-heavy PDFs tend to be more modest than on image-heavy ones.
It's the practice of adding a unique, sequential identifier to every page of a legal document.
Yes, you can set the prefix, starting number, and digit count.
You can choose any of the page's four corners.
Structural issues like a broken xref table or missing trailer can usually be repaired; if a large part of the file is physically damaged, recovery may be limited.
No, only the file's structure is rewritten — the page content is preserved.
Yes, you can choose a number-only format or one that shows the total, like "1 / 12".
You can choose the left, center, or right position at the bottom of the page.
No, cropping only narrows the visible area; the original content stays stored in the file.
Yes, the margins you specify are applied equally to every page.
Yes, any page you leave out of the new order is excluded from the output file.
Yes, you can repeat a page by listing its number more than once in the order.
Yes, comparison runs for the number of pages they share in common, and the difference in page count is reported separately.
Visual diff files for pages that differ, plus a summary report, are downloaded together as a ZIP.
It extracts the raw image objects embedded in the PDF; it doesn't add AI descriptions or tags, it only pulls out the images.
All extracted images are bundled together in PNG format inside a single ZIP archive.
Yes, pages are arranged in the output file according to the order you specify.
Yes, for example entering 1,1,2 places the first page twice and the second page once in the output.
It's for when you've scanned two book pages as a single image and want to split each into its own PDF page.
Yes, every original page is split into two separate pages.
No, each page is fit into its grid cell with its aspect ratio preserved.
The remaining cells on the last sheet are left blank — no pages are lost.
It lets the browser display the first page before the whole file has downloaded — this speeds up opening for large PDFs shared on the web.
No, only the file's internal structure is reorganized; the visible content stays the same.
The last page of the overlay PDF is reused for any extra pages in the base PDF.
Compare shows the differences between two PDFs; Overlay combines the content of two PDFs onto a single page (e.g. to stamp a letterhead template).
AES-256, one of today's strongest PDF encryption standards.
We never store your password, so if it's forgotten there's no way to access the file's contents.
The user password is required to open the file; an optional owner password adds separate permission controls.
No — for security reasons, protection is only removed when you supply the correct password; we don't attempt brute-force cracking.
Only the encryption layer is removed; the content stays the same.
This produces a simple electronic signature (SES); it is not a qualified e-signature, so legal validity depends on your intended use.
Yes, both sequential and parallel multi-signer flows are supported.
After signing, a SHA-256 content-integrity seal is embedded in the document.
This is true redaction — the marked page is converted to an image and the underlying text/image content underneath is completely erased, not just covered with a box.
No, since redacted pages are converted to images, their text can no longer be searched or copied — this is an accepted trade-off for guaranteeing true concealment.
You need to enter x/y/width/height values in the PDF page's own units (points, with the origin at the bottom-left corner).
No, after flattening all form fields become fixed content and can no longer be filled in.
This tool is a separate, quick entry point for people who just want to flatten the existing field values without filling out the form first.
No, only invisible metadata like title/author/keywords changes — the page content stays the same.
It's used for privacy (hiding the document's history/author) or for organizational consistency (standardized title/author info).
The order you add images in is reflected in the resulting PDF pages.
JPG and PNG formats are supported.
Text, tables, and basic formatting are largely preserved; very complex layouts may show small differences.
Yes, you can choose Word, Excel, or PowerPoint as the target format.
It adds an invisible, searchable, and copyable text layer to scanned (image-based) PDFs.
Multiple language options are available, including Turkish and English.
No, the page image is preserved — only a text layer is added behind it.
It's a standard designed for long-term archiving; by requiring fonts and color profiles to be embedded in the document, it guarantees the file can still be opened in the future.
PDF/A has no external dependencies (external fonts, JavaScript, encryption), which makes it suitable for official archives and legal retention.
No, only the plain text content is taken from an RTF file; formatting like fonts, colors, and tables is not preserved.
Yes, text is automatically split onto new pages at the page boundary.
No, this tool extracts the existing text layer; for scanned documents you'll need to run the OCR tool first.
No, the output is plain text — visual layout like columns or tables is not preserved.
No, this first release is content-focused — text is split into sections by page, but pixel-precise layout is not preserved.
Yes, the downloaded file is a standard HTML file that opens in any browser.
No, each page is rendered to a high-resolution image and embedded inside the SVG — the file is in SVG format, but the content is an image, not vector graphics.
When there's more than one page, all the SVG files are bundled together into a single ZIP archive.
No, the SVG is rendered to a high-resolution image and embedded in the PDF page; the output looks visually identical but isn't vector graphics.
It's determined automatically from the SVG file's natural dimensions.
This tool only extracts the raw images; the AI version also adds AI-generated descriptions and tags.
All extracted images are delivered in PNG format, named by page number, inside a ZIP archive.
Word (.doc/.docx), Excel (.xls/.xlsx) and PowerPoint (.ppt/.pptx) files can be converted to PDF.
Yes, the LibreOffice engine preserves the layout to a large extent; very unusual fonts and macros are not carried over to the PDF.
Headings are inferred with simple rules such as line length and numbering; since PDFs carry no real heading tags, some lines may be classified incorrectly.
No, only text and links are extracted; table structure and images are not carried over.
Yes, the page is opened in a real browser (Playwright) and converted to PDF only after the content has loaded.
No, only publicly accessible pages can be converted.
You can upload HEIC/HEIF (iPhone photos), JPG, PNG, WEBP, BMP, GIF, TIFF, and AVIF as source formats, and choose JPG, PNG, WEBP, BMP, GIF, TIFF, or AVIF as the target format.
Yes, HEIC/HEIF files are supported as a source format and are automatically converted to your chosen target format. HEIC cannot be selected as a target format.
There's no quality loss when converting between lossless formats (PNG, BMP); converting to a lossy format like JPG/WEBP may introduce slight quality loss.
You can convert in either direction between MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC, M4A, OGG, WMA, and OPUS. You can also upload AIFF as a source format (it can't be chosen as a target).
Yes, there's a limit of 100 MB and 60 minutes per file.
For conversions to lossy formats (MP3/AAC/OGG/WMA/OPUS), it sets the bitrate — lower gives a smaller file, higher gives better audio quality. Since WAV and FLAC are lossless, this setting doesn't appear for them.
Yes, the 'Advanced settings' section lets you trim a section, adjust volume (-20/+20 dB), and change playback speed (0.5x-2x).
Upload your video file and choose a target audio format (MP3/WAV/AAC/M4A) — the picture is discarded and only the audio track is produced as a downloadable file.
It can't exceed the source audio's quality, but the bitrate is set according to the quality preset you choose (low/medium/high).
Yes — for example, you can upload an MP3 and a WAV together. Each file is first converted to a common intermediate format, then combined into a single file in your chosen target format.
Yes, after uploading you can move files up or down to set the merge order.
At least 2 files are required, with no upper limit — add as many as you like as long as the total duration stays under 60 minutes.
You can convert between MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, and WEBM. You can also upload WMV, FLV, 3GP, TS, and VOB as source formats (they can't be chosen as a target).
MP4 (H.264) has the broadest device and browser compatibility. WEBM (VP9) uses a royalty-free codec and generally produces smaller files, but some older devices may have trouble playing it.
Yes, you can downscale the video with the 480p/720p/1080p options. This only reduces resolution — it can't produce a resolution higher than the source video.
Yes, there's a limit of 500 MB and 20 minutes per file.
Yes, the 'Advanced settings' section lets you trim a section, adjust volume and playback speed, and rotate the video by 90°/180°/270°.
GIF compression is far less efficient than video — long clips quickly turn into huge files. 15 seconds is a practical upper limit.
The GIF format supports at most 256 colors. Our tool uses two-pass palette optimization to produce the best possible quality within that limit.
Video files end up much smaller than GIFs, and most social media platforms prefer a short video over a GIF.
No, GIF format never contains audio, so the output video is silent.
Yes, clips with different resolutions or aspect ratios are automatically fitted to a common resolution (with letterboxing) so they merge smoothly.
Yes, after uploading you can move files up or down to set the merge order.
At least 2 files are required, with no upper limit — add as many as you like as long as the total duration stays under 20 minutes.
You can upload subtitle files in SRT or VTT format.
Burning in permanently renders the subtitles into the video — visible in every player but can't be turned off. A separate track can be toggled on or off if the player supports it, and the video picture itself stays unchanged.
No, it's only supported for MP4 and MOV targets. If you choose WEBM, subtitles are automatically burned in instead.
