Free PDF Tools

Everything you need for everyday PDF jobs.

FreePDF brings common PDF tools together in one place so you can complete the task quickly and move on.

Free online PDF tools in one place

Use FreePDF to merge PDFs, compress PDF files, convert JPG images to PDF, convert PDF pages to JPG, extract text, organise pages, fill and sign documents, add watermarks and page numbers, or protect and unlock authorised PDFs.

FreePDF also includes South African business-document tools for creating invoices and payslip PDFs. Core tools do not require an account, and supported processing is designed to happen in your browser.

Each tool has its own dedicated page with instructions, privacy information and tool-specific limitations, so you can choose the right task without installing desktop software.

Frequently asked questions

Are all FreePDF tools free?

The core FreePDF tools are designed to be used without an account or subscription. Practical browser and file-size limits may still apply.

Are my documents uploaded to FreePDF?

Supported document-processing tools are designed to process the selected file locally in your browser rather than upload the document contents to FreePDF’s application server.

Can I use FreePDF on mobile?

Yes. FreePDF is responsive and works in modern mobile browsers, although very large or complex documents may perform better on devices with more memory.

Does FreePDF convert PDF to Word or Excel?

Not currently. FreePDF only advertises conversion formats that the current tools genuinely support. PDF-to-Word, Word-to-PDF, Excel conversion and OCR may be considered for future versions.

Does PDF to Text include OCR?

No. PDF to Text extracts selectable text already present in the PDF. Image-only scanned documents require OCR, which is not part of the current tool.
