Fourteen PDF tools that run entirely on your device. Your files are never uploaded and no account is needed. FROM PDF • PDF to Word: a real, editable .docx that keeps the layout, with fonts, colors, tables, pictures, headers and footers • PDF to Excel: ruled tables become real .xlsx cells • PDF to JPG or PNG: pick the resolution, pick the pages • PDF to Text: pulls out the text layer • Extract images: saves the pictures in a PDF as separate files TO PDF • Word to PDF: .docx and older .doc files, with pictures, tables, footnotes, headers and footers • Images to PDF: JPG, PNG, WebP, BMP, GIF, in the order you choose ORGANIZE • Merge: drag the files into the order you want; their bookmarks come along • Split: one file per page, or extract a range like 3-5, 9 • Rotate: 90° steps, on the pages you select • Compress: lossless cleanup, or smaller images for a much smaller file, with the estimated size shown first SECURITY • Add a password (AES-256) • Remove a password you already know MANY FILES AT ONCE Pick several files and each one is converted with the same settings. “Share all” saves the results wherever you like. SEE THE PAGES FIRST Every PDF tool shows real page previews. Tap the pages you want or type a range. HONEST ABOUT LIMITS • Scanned pages have no text layer, so text, Word and Excel export cannot read them (that needs OCR). The app tells you which pages those are. • Removing a password requires knowing the password. This app does not crack anything. No account, no watermarks, no page limits. Available in 20 languages.
