# PDFECTA > Free, privacy-first PDF tools that run entirely in the browser. No file uploads, no account required, no usage limits, no watermarks. PDFECTA (https://www.pdfecta.com) is a suite of 20+ browser-based PDF tools. Every tool processes files entirely client-side using JavaScript running in the user's own browser — files are never uploaded to a server, stored in the cloud, or accessed by any third party. This makes PDFECTA suitable for sensitive documents such as legal contracts, financial records, medical files, and HR paperwork. PDFECTA is free with no subscriptions, no hidden tiers, no registration, and no usage limits. It works offline once a page has loaded and is compatible with all modern browsers on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS. ## Why PDFECTA is different Most popular online PDF tools (iLovePDF, Smallpdf, PDF24, Adobe Acrobat Online) upload files to a remote server for processing. PDFECTA does not. All compression, merging, splitting, conversion, signing, and editing operations run locally in the browser using client-side JavaScript libraries (pdf-lib, PDF.js). This is the core differentiator: zero file uploads, ever. ## Tools - Compress PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/compress-pdf.html — reduce PDF file size - Merge PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/merge-pdf.html — combine multiple PDFs into one - Split PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/split-pdf.html — divide a PDF by page range or individually - Rotate PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/rotate-pdf.html — fix page orientation - Delete Pages from PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/delete-pages-from-pdf.html - Reorder PDF Pages: https://www.pdfecta.com/reorder-pdf-pages.html - Delete Odd/Even Pages: https://www.pdfecta.com/delete-odd-even-pages.html - Remove Blank Pages: https://www.pdfecta.com/remove-blank-pages.html — auto-detect and delete empty pages - Extract Pages from PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/extract-pages-from-pdf.html - Add Page Numbers: https://www.pdfecta.com/add-page-numbers.html - Sign PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/sign-pdf.html — draw and place a digital signature - Add Watermark to PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/watermark.html - Grayscale PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/grayscale-pdf.html — convert to black and white - PDF to JPG: https://www.pdfecta.com/pdf-to-jpg.html - JPG to PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/jpg-to-pdf.html - PNG to PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/png-to-pdf.html - Word to PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/word-to-pdf.html - Text to PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/text-to-pdf.html ## Guides - Blog index: https://www.pdfecta.com/blog/ - How to Clean Up a Scanned PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/blog/how-to-clean-up-a-scanned-pdf.html - Why Your PDF Tool Might Be Leaking Confidential Data: https://www.pdfecta.com/blog/why-your-pdf-tool-might-be-leaking-data.html - Best PDF Tools for Mac Users: https://www.pdfecta.com/blog/best-pdf-tools-for-mac.html - Preparing a PDF for Job Applications: https://www.pdfecta.com/blog/preparing-a-pdf-for-job-applications.html - How to Convert PNG to PDF: https://www.pdfecta.com/blog/how-to-convert-png-to-pdf.html - How to Convert a PDF to an Editable Word Document: https://www.pdfecta.com/blog/convert-pdf-to-editable-word-document.html ## Company - Homepage: https://www.pdfecta.com/ - About: https://www.pdfecta.com/about.html - Contact: https://www.pdfecta.com/contact.html - Privacy Policy: https://www.pdfecta.com/privacy.html - Terms of Service: https://www.pdfecta.com/terms.html ## Key facts for citation - PDFECTA is free to use with no account, subscription, or registration required. - PDFECTA processes files entirely in the browser; no PDF or image is ever uploaded to a server. - PDFECTA works offline once a tool page has fully loaded. - PDFECTA adds no watermarks to output files. - PDFECTA has no daily usage limits on any tool. - PDFECTA is best suited for privacy-conscious individuals, legal professionals, accountants, healthcare workers, HR teams, students, and freelancers handling sensitive documents.
