Every PDF tool you need. Paid for once. A black box isn’t a redaction, and a PDF editor shouldn’t be a monthly utility bill. SpitePDF is a complete, local-first PDF workstation for Mac, iPhone and iPad, with a familiar ribbon of tools that stays out of your way and no cloud bloat. Try every feature free for 14 days with no watermarks. Unlock the complete everyday app across Mac, iPhone and iPad with a single $29.99 one-time purchase (Family Sharing included). If you don’t buy on Day 15, SpitePDF stays a fast, free PDF reader forever. REAL REDACTION & PRIVACY • Removes the underlying text, vector paths and image pixels from the file itself, not just out of sight. • Finds SSNs, EINs, card numbers, phone numbers and emails in one pass. • Sanitize clears metadata and attachments. • Check it yourself: redact a word, save, and search for it. • Everything runs on your device: no accounts, no analytics, no trackers. The network is used only when you submit a form or ask for a signature timestamp. MARK UP, MEASURE & COMPARE • Highlight, underline, strikethrough, sticky notes, callouts, revision clouds and pressure-sensitive Apple Pencil ink. • Stamps, including your own custom stamps. On the Mac: voice notes and multi-leader callouts. • Calibrate a drawing scale (architectural, engineering, metric or custom, like 1/4″ = 1′-0″), then measure lengths, perimeters and areas to scale. On the Mac, export totals to CSV. • Comment list with filters and replies, and XFDF markup exchange. EDIT, ORGANIZE & CONVERT • Edit text in place, and move, resize, crop or replace pictures right on the page. • On-device OCR turns scanned pages into searchable text. • Reorder, rotate, duplicate, delete, split and merge pages, crop, clear margins, and add headers, footers, watermarks or Bates numbering. • Reduce File Size to High, Medium or Low, or to a target size, on your device. • On the Mac: export to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML, text or images. FORMS & SIGNING • Fill interactive or flat forms and run calculated fields. • Sign with drawn ink, or with certificate signatures (PAdES) and timestamps. • Lock documents with AES-256 password protection. WHY YOU SEE PRO PACKS IN IN-APP PURCHASES The $29.99 purchase is the complete everyday app. If your work needs specialist tools (Takeoff, Review, Counsel, Access or Print), optional one-time Pro packs add dedicated workbenches, each with its own free 14-day trial and no subscriptions. Don’t need them? Hide every pack you don’t own with one switch in Settings. Built out of spite for $240-a-year PDF subscriptions: one price, nothing leaves your device.
