Frequently asked questions

Is Big PDF Tools free?

Yes. 41 tools, and no account needed for the everyday ones: merging, splitting, compressing, rotating, converting and signing are all free, with no watermark on the result. Three tools are Pro only, and a few tools have one or two Pro options inside them. See what is free and what is Pro

Are my files uploaded to a server?

Not for most of them. 21 of the 41 tools do the whole job in this page, on your own processor, so the file is read off your disk and never sent anywhere. The rest, such as compression, OCR and the Office conversions, need software that cannot run in a browser; those files go to our conversion server, are used for that one job, and are deleted afterwards.

Can I compress a PDF to 200KB?

Often, but nobody can promise an exact size. Compress PDF has three levels, and the strongest one takes a scanned document down a long way because the pictures inside it carry most of the weight. A PDF that is mostly text is already small and will not shrink much. Try the strongest level and check the size we show you before you download. Open Compress PDF

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. Every tool here works in a phone browser, and files open from your gallery or downloads the same way they open from a folder on a computer. There is also an Android app if you would rather have the tools on your home screen, and a Windows app that works without the internet. Get the apps

What do I get with Pro?

The three Pro tools, Bank Statement to Excel, Redact PDF and Compare PDF, every Pro option inside the other tools, the Pro templates in PDF Maker, much larger files on the tools that use the server, and no ads anywhere. It is a monthly or yearly plan and you can cancel it at any time. See the plans
