Privacy and safe use
In this tool, document processing happens in your browser. The file and password are not sent to any conversion server. For the first time, internet is required to download engine files; OCR language data is also downloaded. Ads, chat and translation are separate online features of the site. Putting a private document into AI chat or translation is not the same as local PDF processing. Work only after reading the limits given on this page. Browser memory is different on every device, so no fixed speed or guaranteed result can be given for very large files. Download the new file after processing. Complete the test before replacing the original. Change someone else's document only if you have their permission.
