Frequently asked questions
What if my PDF can't get under 200KB?
Long or image-heavy documents sometimes can't fit without becoming unreadable. The tool will tell you and give you the smallest version. Splitting the PDF into parts with Split PDF usually solves it.
Will the text still be readable?
The tool always picks the highest quality that fits, so the result is as clear as the size limit allows. Text becomes part of an image, so it can't be selected or searched.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. PDF Private runs entirely in your web browser. Your file is read into your device's memory, processed by code running on your device, and saved straight back to your downloads. It never travels over the internet, so we never see it. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the tool still works.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark, no daily limit and no paid tier. Because your device does the work, there are no server costs to pass on.
