Upload
Drop your file into the tool — it is transferred over an encrypted connection and stays private the whole time.

The job runs automatically on our servers. Pick options like compression level, page ranges or output format where available.
Download
Grab your result straight away. Temporary files expire automatically after about 30 minutes — nothing is kept.
Frequently asked questions.
The short version: free, private and built for everyday documents.
Are these PDF tools really free?
Yes. PDF Help is funded by clearly labeled advertising, so the core tools stay free — no trial, no watermark and no sign-up for everyday tasks.
What happens to my uploaded files?
Files are uploaded over an encrypted connection, processed automatically and deleted after the short job expiry window of about 30 minutes. Nothing is shared, and result pages are excluded from search engines.
Do I need an account?
No. Every tool works without registration — open the page, upload your file and download the result.
What are the file limits?
You can upload files up to 50 MB per job for free. Larger documents may simply take a little longer to process.
Which formats can I convert?
PDF Help converts Word, Excel, PowerPoint, JPG and PNG to PDF and back, and can also extract text, tables and CSV data — including OCR for scanned documents.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. All tools run in the browser and the upload flow is built for both desktop and mobile devices.
