Compatibility & privacy

Know what works before choosing a file.

The tools are designed for current desktop and mobile browsers, with ordinary document work completed locally. This guide explains supported formats, realistic limits, and the one feature that temporarily stores encrypted data.

31 focused tools

PDF editing, page work, conversion, forms, typed marks, metadata, repair, and encrypted sharing.

No signup

Ordinary tools do not need an account, profile, or intentional application-server upload.

Device limits matter

Large, complex, or high-resolution files can exceed browser memory, especially on phones and tablets.

Supported files

InputAvailable output or taskImportant limitation
PDFDOCX, TXT, JPG, PNG, editing, forms, page tools, typed marks, metadata, repair, secure linkImage-only scans are not OCR'd; complex layout and interactive features need review.
JPG / JPEGPDFExisting image compression cannot be reversed.
PNGPDFLarge transparent images can use substantial memory.
HEIC / HEIFPDFDecoder support varies by image variant; smaller photos are more reliable.
SVGRasterized PDFActive and external content is removed; vector editability is not preserved.
TIFF / TIFPDF, including supported multi-page TIFFUp to 50 pages and 80 decoded megapixels per job.
TXT / MarkdownPDFMarkdown is simplified; complex layouts and embedded remote content are not reproduced.

Not offered

DOCX-, PowerPoint-, and spreadsheet-to-PDF conversion are not currently offered. Reproducing Office layouts accurately in a browser would add a significant reliability burden. The site does not claim OCR, identity-verified signing, notarization, guaranteed compression, forensic redaction, or perfect Office-format fidelity.

Browser and device guidance

The site is designed for current versions of Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox on Windows, macOS, Linux, iPhone, iPad, and Android where the required browser APIs are available. That is compatibility guidance—not a guarantee for every device or browser build. Desktop Chrome, Edge, Safari, or Firefox is the safer choice for large PDFs, many pages, high-resolution photos, or TIFF conversion. Keep the browser updated, close unused tabs, and retain the original until the result has been checked.

Processing and storage boundaries

Safety limits

Free local processing allows up to 40 MB per browser session and free secure links up to 15 MB. A 24-hour Day Pass raises local files to 100 MB and secure-link files to 90 MB, with a 5 GB cumulative secure-transfer limit and 1 GB active at once. Uploads in progress reserve storage capacity, and expired files continue to count until deletion is verified. The platform also enforces page, pixel, time, image-count, and memory safeguards. A rewarded local boost may raise local files to 50 MB for two minutes, up to four times daily, only if Google makes an approved opt-in format available; it does not add secure-link storage.

Test without using a personal document

Generate a two-page sample in this browser, then try editing, converting, splitting, rotating, or extracting it. The button does not fetch a file from our server.
