File and export limits

PDF input: 50 MB per file, 100 files and 500 MB per workspace. Split export supports up to 200 parts.

JPG to PDF also takes JPG and PNG images: 20 MB per image, and up to 50 megapixels for a JPG or 25 for a PNG. Each image becomes one page and counts as one file toward the workspace limits. No text recognition is applied.

Each device gets 3 successful standard exports per UTC day, shared by anonymous and signed-in free users. The allowance resets at 00:00 UTC (UTC midnight). Signing in, signing out or switching free accounts does not change it. No signup is needed to return tomorrow. A combined export counts once; failures and repeat downloads do not use another allowance. AI and OCR are not included in the free allowance.

How it works

  1. Upload a PDF
  2. Select a page and make your edits
  3. Export and inspect the downloaded PDF

Complex layouts and forms need manual inspection. The basic editor does not include conversion, OCR or certificate signing.

Common questions

Can I edit scanned text?

A scan is an image. Adding text is possible, but it does not turn the scan into editable text.

Can I remove sensitive text by covering it?

A visual cover is not secure redaction. Do not use it to conceal private information.

Will my fonts match?

Available fonts and the PDF structure affect text changes. Review spacing and line breaks after export.

Does editing preserve digital signatures?

Changing a signed document may invalidate its existing signatures. Keep the signed original.
