Privacy and File Size Limits

ToolsGuru processes your PDF inside your browser, and your document is not sent to a conversion server for processing. The PDF libraries required by the tool load from public content delivery networks (CDNs), so an internet connection is required.

  • Maximum file size: Up to 60 MB per file.
  • Internet connection: Required to load the PDF processing libraries.
  • Password-protected PDFs: May not work with this tool.

For sensitive documents, always use a device and browser you trust.
