About FreePDF

FreePDF is a collection of free online tools for PDFs, images, QR codes, audio, video and data files. Unlike most online PDF sites, almost every tool here runs entirely inside your web browser. Your files are processed on your own device and are not uploaded to our servers.

Why we built it

People often need to merge, compress or convert a document quickly – for a job application, a government form or an email. Most sites ask you to upload private files, create an account, or wait out hourly limits. We wanted tools that are free, fast and private by design.

How it works

When you open a tool, your browser downloads the program code (built on open-source libraries such as pdf-lib and PDF.js). The work then happens locally. After a page has loaded, many tools keep working even if your connection drops.

Is it really free?

Yes. There are no paid plans, file limits or watermarks. The site may show unobtrusive ads in the future to cover hosting costs.
