Free online PDF tools
Everything here runs inside your browser using JavaScript, which means your documents are never uploaded to a server — an unusual guarantee for PDF tools, and the reason these are safe to use with contracts, certificates, and anything else carrying personal information. The trade-off is honest: a handful of jobs genuinely need server-side processing, and where that is the case the tool says so rather than pretending otherwise. Pick a tool below, or start with compressing if you are trying to get a file under an upload limit.
