These free PDF tools cover the jobs people run into every week: joining files, pulling out pages, shrinking a scan for an upload form, and fixing pages that came out sideways. No signup, no watermark, and nothing to install.
Merging, splitting, rotating and deleting pages all run inside your browser, so those files never leave your device. Compression runs on the FileKiwi server, and your file is deleted right after processing. Every tool works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone and Android in any modern browser.
Which PDF tools do you need?
| You want to | Use | Where it runs |
|---|---|---|
| Join several PDFs into one | Merge PDF | Your browser |
| Make a PDF smaller | Compress PDF | FileKiwi server, deleted after |
| Save pages or ranges as new files | Split PDF | Your browser |
| Fix sideways or upside down pages | Rotate PDF | Your browser |
| Remove blank or private pages | Delete PDF Pages | Your browser |
Four of the five tools copy pages exactly as they are, so text and images keep their original quality. Only compression changes the file content, by lowering the detail of images inside the PDF. Text stays sharp and selectable either way.
Need to hit an exact limit on a form? The size presets aim for a target for you, from 100 KB up to 1 MB. Try Compress PDF to 200 KB for strict application forms, or Compress PDF to 1 MB for email and larger portals. They try stronger settings step by step and tell you honestly if a file cannot get that small.
A simple order for tidying any PDF
When a document needs several fixes, the order matters. Doing them in this sequence avoids extra work and keeps quality as high as possible.
- Delete blank, duplicate or private pages first, so you do not fix pages you will throw away.
- Rotate any pages that are sideways or upside down.
- Merge the cleaned files into one document in the right order.
- Compress last, once, so images are only reduced a single time.
