Who it's for

Best for

  • Office staff who merge, compress or convert a file without creating an account
  • Students handling everyday PDF edits, conversions and locked documents

Not for

  • Anyone converting large scanned files that may hit the free time limit
  • Careful buyers who want purchased credits to stay usable indefinitely

Features

  • Around 50 PDF tools in the browser

    The site gathers around 50 small apps for editing, compressing, merging, splitting, signing, protecting and unlocking PDFs, all opened from one page.

  • Conversions in both directions

    Documents convert to and from Word, Excel, PowerPoint, JPG, PNG, EPUB, DjVu, TXT and HTML, and a web address can be turned into a PDF directly.

  • Password and permission control

    The Protect PDF app sets a password and permissions on a document, while Unlock PDF removes a password that is already known.

  • File handling and data protection

    Files travel over TLS, sit on servers with full-disk encryption and encrypted backups, are handled under GDPR, and a DPA can be downloaded from the dashboard.

  • Nothing to install

    Every app runs in the browser on any operating system, with nothing to download, and the interface works with touch as well as a mouse.

What users say

Pros

  • Compresses documents to an email-friendly size and edits them, as the regular go-to for years.
  • Delivers finished files with no account, no emailed results and no requests for personal details.
  • Repaired a corrupt bank statement PDF that other converter sites could not open.
  • Converts an EPUB to PDF in seconds, and other document conversions finish quickly too.
  • Removes a known password from a PDF cleanly and without extra steps.

Cons

  • Longer conversions can freeze partway through, leaving no finished document.
  • Jobs that run past the time limit stop at an upgrade demand instead of delivering the file.
  • Purchased credits expire, so an unused balance on a paid account can vanish.
