Free PDF tools, private by default

FreePDFToolbox is a collection of 50 PDF utilities that run entirely in your web browser. Your files never leave your device.

What FreePDFToolbox is

FreePDFToolbox is a free, browser-based collection of PDF tools: merging, splitting, compressing, converting, editing, securing and extracting — 50 tools in total, each with its own dedicated page.

The project was built around one simple idea: document processing should not require uploading your files to a stranger's server.

Why local processing

Most online PDF tools work by uploading your file, processing it on their servers, and sending the result back. That means your document — possibly confidential — passes through infrastructure you don't control.

Every tool on FreePDFToolbox works differently:

  • The PDF is read by JavaScript running in your browser.
  • Processing libraries (pdf-lib, pdf.js, Tesseract for OCR) run on your device, compiled to WebAssembly where needed.
  • The result is generated locally and you download it.

At no point is your file transmitted. You can verify this yourself: open your browser's developer tools, watch the Network tab, and process a file — no requests carry your document.
