Browse free, easy-to-use pdf tools designed to help you create, edit, and get things done in seconds.
Combine PDFs, extract pages, try file-size optimization, render pages as images, or recover editable text. Choose the workspace that matches your task. Processing varies: some tools upload documents, PDF to Image renders locally, and OCR can use a server fallback.
Simple, reliable tools made for everyday work
Processing differences: Merge, split, compression, image-to-PDF, and Word conversion normally upload files.
Local page rendering: PDF to Image draws full pages in the browser.
Text conversion: PDF to Word produces a text-based DOCX rather than recreating the page design.
Published limits: File size, page count, and server rate limits vary by tool.
Common questions about privacy, features, and how to use these tools
No. Several workflows upload documents first, even when a browser fallback is available. PDF to Image renders locally; OCR may upload if its local attempt fails.
There is no guaranteed reduction. The compressor rewrites document structure and selected metadata; it does not downsample embedded pictures and returns the original bytes if optimization would be larger.
No. It extracts an existing text layer. Use OCR to recognize scanned text, and review the result. Original layouts, tables, and images are not reconstructed.
Yes. Server PDF inputs are limited to 80 MB each. PDF to Image supports up to 100 pages, and the server all-page splitter supports up to 500. Collection limits also apply to merging and image uploads.
