Why use this tool

Every PDF task, one place

Merge, split, compress, convert, sign, and more — no need to juggle separate apps for each job.

Private by default

Most tools process your file entirely in the browser — it's never uploaded. When a conversion needs the server, the file is deleted within the hour.

Works on any device

Runs in the browser on Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android — nothing to install, nothing to trust but the tab.

Fast by design

No queues and no desktop app to wait on — most jobs finish in a few seconds, right where you are.

Convert to and from any format

Move between PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, and HTML — output stays true to your original formatting.

Free, always

Every tool here is free to use, with no watermarks, page limits, or forced trial period.

Frequently asked questions

You can view and edit standard properties including the Title, Author, Subject, Keywords, and Creator fields.

Removing metadata is crucial for privacy, ensuring you don't accidentally leak internal usernames or creation software details.

No, the internal document title is completely separate from the external file name on your operating system.

This utility focuses on the standard document properties dictionary, not complex XML-based XMP streams.

You must first unlock the document using the correct password before the metadata can be accessed or altered.
