Frequently asked questions
What is PDF/A?
A version of PDF designed for archiving: everything needed to display it (colors, metadata) is inside the file, so it opens the same way in 20 years. Some public and court filing platforms require it.
Does the text stay selectable?
No: each page is saved as an image, which guarantees compliance. Keep the original if you still need to edit the document.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Processing happens entirely in your browser, on your device. No file is uploaded or stored. You can check: once the page has loaded, disconnect from the internet and the tool still works.
Is there a file size or number limit?
No. Since nothing goes through our servers, there is no quota. The only limit is your device's memory: a computer handles very large files more easily than a phone.
Is it really free?
Yes. No sign-up, no watermark added to your documents and no usage limit.
