FAQ

How does browser-based PDF merging work?

The tool uses pdf-lib, a JavaScript library that reads and manipulates PDF files directly in your browser. You select multiple PDFs, the library combines their pages in order, and you download the merged result. No server upload required.

Can I extract specific pages from a PDF?

Yes. The PDF Split tool lets you specify page ranges like "1-3, 5, 8-12." It creates a new PDF containing only those pages. The original file is not modified.

How much can the PDF compressor reduce file size?

Results vary by document. PDFs with embedded high-resolution images see the largest reductions (often 40–70% smaller). Text-heavy PDFs with few images may see modest savings since the text data is already compact.

Are my PDF files uploaded to a server?

No. All PDF processing — merging, splitting, and compressing — runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your documents never leave your device.

Is there a limit on the number of PDFs I can merge?

There is no hard limit. However, since processing happens in your browser, very large files or dozens of PDFs may slow down on devices with limited memory. For best results, keep total combined size under 50 MB.
