Merge PDF
Drop files, reorder, combine — nothing leaves this tab.
How it works
Three steps. No upload. No account.
You don't need a walkthrough wall of text. Drop a file, the tool runs in this tab, and you download the result.
1Drop the file
Pick a PDF or image from your device. Nothing is sent to a server at this step — or any other.
2It runs in this tab
The tool loads into your browser and processes the document on your device. There is no upload queue.
3Download the result
Save the new PDF instantly. Close the tab and the file is gone from memory — we never had a copy.

Built so a PDF never has to leave your device
Every tool below is built on the same three principles: nothing leaves your device, nothing costs money, and nothing gets in your way.
Private by design
Files are decoded and rewritten inside your browser tab. There is no server-side upload step to intercept, log, or leak.
Loads and runs instantly
No upload queue, no server round-trip, no waiting room. Pick a file and the result is usually ready in under a second.
Free, with no catch
No sign-up, no subscription, no watermark stamped on your output, and no artificial page-count limit.
Works on any device
Desktop, laptop, tablet, or phone — if it runs a modern browser, it runs every tool on this site.
One tool, one job
Each page does exactly one task well — merge, split, compress, sign — instead of burying the option in a cluttered suite.
Real output quality
Merging, splitting, and reordering never re-encode your pages. Compression and conversion give you explicit quality control.
