Who this is for

Most people only need a PDF editor a few times a year, which is exactly why paying for one never makes sense — this covers the handful of things people actually ask a PDF for, without a subscription attached.

  • Students merging scanned homework pages, one photo per page, into a single PDF for submission
  • Job seekers combining a resume, cover letter, and writing samples into one applicant packet
  • Freelancers watermarking a draft contract or proposal before sending it out for review
  • Anyone pulling a handful of pages out of a huge scanned document instead of emailing the whole thing
  • Small business owners compressing an oversized PDF that keeps bouncing off an email attachment limit

Frequently asked questions

How do I merge PDF files online for free?

Choose two or more PDFs in the order you want them combined, then click Merge — the tool combines them into one file and downloads it. No account or upload required; everything runs in your browser.

How do I extract or split pages from a PDF?

Choose a PDF, enter the page range you want (e.g. 1-3,5,8-9), and the tool extracts just those pages into a new PDF.

Can I rotate specific pages in a PDF?

Yes — rotate all pages, or enter a specific page range, and choose 90°, 180°, or 270°.

How do I add a watermark to a PDF?

Choose a PDF, type your watermark text, and the tool stamps it diagonally and semi-transparently across every page.

Does this PDF editor upload my file to a server?

No. Every operation — merge, split, rotate, watermark, compress — runs entirely client-side in your browser using a local copy of pdf-lib. Your file never leaves your device.

Is the PDF compressor effective?

It re-packs the file's internal structure to shave off overhead, which works best on PDFs with lots of repeated fonts or objects. It won't meaningfully shrink a file that's mostly large images, since that requires actual image recompression, which this tool doesn't do.

Can I merge PDFs in a different order than I uploaded them?

Files merge in the order you select them — pick them one at a time in the order you want the final document to read, or reselect if you need to change that order before clicking Merge.

Is there a file size limit?

No hard limit is imposed by this tool itself. Since every operation runs in your own browser rather than a server, the practical ceiling is your device's available memory, not a cap we enforce.

Does the PDF editor work on a phone or tablet?

Yes — it runs in any modern mobile browser. Very large or image-heavy PDFs may process more slowly on a phone than on a desktop, since the work is being done by your device either way.

Being straight about this: every operation runs entirely in your browser — no file is ever uploaded to a server. Very large or unusual PDFs (encrypted, malformed, or with non-standard structure) may fail to process; the tool will say so rather than silently producing a broken file.
