Choosing the right operation

Merge combines several separate PDFs into one — useful for putting scanned pages, multiple reports, or a set of documents into a single file to send. Split does the opposite, pulling specific pages out of one PDF into their own file, handy when you only need to send one section of a longer document. Reorder & Rotate fixes a document's page order or orientation without touching its content — a common need after scanning a stack of paper where a few pages went in upside down or out of sequence. Compress shrinks file size for easier sharing, at the cost of turning selectable text into a flattened image. Images to PDF is for the reverse direction: turning a set of photos or scanned pages into one shareable PDF document.

Frequently asked questions

Is this PDF toolkit really free?

Yes, completely free with no sign-up and no watermark added to your files.

Do my PDFs get uploaded anywhere?

No. Every operation happens locally in your browser — your files are never sent to a server.

Does compression lose quality?

Yes, by design — pages are re-rendered as images at your chosen quality level, similar to a JPEG. This makes the file smaller but also means selectable text becomes a flattened image, so it's best for reducing file size for sharing rather than for documents you need to keep editable.

Does reordering or rotating pages lose any quality?

No — pages are rearranged and rotated as-is, with no re-rendering or compression involved, so the original content stays exactly as it was.

Is there a file size or page limit?

No hard limit, but very large or long PDFs may be slow to process depending on your device.

We've noticed an ad blocker is active. Cwtch.es relies on ads to stay free, so PDFs created while a blocker is active will include a small Cwtch.es watermark in the corner of each page. Disable your ad blocker for this site (or add it to your allow-list) and recheck to create one without it.
