Cloud converters require uploading contracts, invoices, and ID scans to someone else’s storage. VeloTools PDF tools use the same architecture as our image compressor: the page loads once, then pdf-lib, PDF.js, and the Canvas API run inside your tab. Closing the tab clears the working copy.
How to use this hub
Choose the job — organize, shrink, convert, or secure.
Open the tool card; drop files into the zone on that page.
Download the result. Nothing was uploaded for processing.
What we ship today vs later
Every card above is a finished tool. Office formats (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and full in-document text editing need engines that cannot meet our zero-upload quality bar yet — they stay off this grid until they can.
No. File bytes stay in browser memory. Network requests after page load are for static assets only — not your documents.
Which PDF tools are free?
All eight on this hub: Merge, Split, Rotate, Compress, PDF to JPG, JPG to PDF, Unlock, and Protect. No account, no watermark.
Is Protect PDF encryption real?
Yes. The downloaded file includes a Standard Security Handler dictionary. Opening it in a PDF reader requires the password you set.
Will offline mode work?
After scripts load (or from cache), merge, split, rotate, and similar tools keep working without a network. First visit still needs CDN libraries.

From the builder: one PDF hub, eight jobs
I split PDF work into merge, split, rotate, compress, convert, unlock, and protect because a single “do everything” page hid the real action. Each tool stays zero-upload. Start here when you know the job; jump to Compress when size is the only problem.
