Our Mission

TotalPDF Kit started from a specific irritation, not a mission statement. Every free PDF site wanted an account before it would give the file back, or stamped its own logo across the first page, or quietly uploaded a document that had no business leaving the computer it was on.

So the catalogue was built the other way round. Thirty-five tools, none behind a sign-up form, none watermarking what it hands you. Nineteen of them never send the document anywhere at all: splitting, rotating, page numbers, redaction, form filling, comparison, PDF/A and the rest run inside the browser with pdf-lib and pdf.js, and you can prove it by watching the network tab while the file is processed. The sixteen that do need a machine on our side, because LibreOffice converts the Office formats, Ghostscript compresses and OCRmyPDF reads scans, delete the file within the hour.

The whole site is written in six languages: English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese and Hindi. And because real work is rarely one operation, there is PDF ARENA at /pdf-arena, a workspace that keeps your pages between steps, so you can merge, reorder, redact and number a document without downloading and re-uploading it four times.
