About ForPDF

Free, privacy-focused tools for PDF and image processing

Our Mission

ForPDF was created with a simple mission: provide powerful, easy-to-use file processing tools that respect your privacy and are accessible to everyone, completely free.

We believe that essential file management tasks like merging PDFs or converting image formats shouldn't require expensive software subscriptions, complex installations, or sacrificing your privacy by uploading files to unknown servers.

Whether you're a student working on assignments, a professional handling business documents, or anyone needing quick file processing - our tools are 100% free with no catch, no trial period, and no paid upgrade version.

Privacy First

Unlike traditional online tools that require uploading your files to remote servers, ForPDF processes everything directly in your web browser. This means:

  • Your files never leave your device - All processing happens locally
  • No file storage - We don't store, cache, or have any access to your files
  • No accounts required - Use all tools instantly without signing up
  • Complete privacy - Perfect for confidential documents and sensitive images

How It Works

ForPDF uses modern web technologies to bring desktop-level functionality to your browser:

  • JavaScript Processing: Powerful libraries handle PDF manipulation and image conversion
  • Client-Side Only: Your device does all the work - no server uploads
  • Fast & Efficient: No upload/download delays means instant results
  • Open Source Libraries: We use trusted, well-maintained open-source tools

100% Free Forever - No Hidden Costs

ForPDF is completely free to use and always will be. There is no paid version, no premium tier, no subscription, and no trial period that expires. We support the service through non-intrusive advertising. Our philosophy:

  • Truly Free: All tools are 100% free with no limits, restrictions, or paywalls
  • No Subscriptions: Never pay monthly fees - use as much as you need, whenever you need
  • Perfect for Students: No credit card required, no student email verification - just use it
  • No Upgrade Prompts: No annoying "upgrade to pro" messages - what you see is what you get
  • Same Tools for Everyone: Students, professionals, and everyone else get identical features
  • Non-Intrusive Ads: Thoughtfully placed to support the service without disrupting your work
  • Your Privacy is Never for Sale: We don't sell your data or files to anyone

Why This Matters for Students: We understand that students often face budget constraints. Unlike many "free" services that limit features or require payment for full functionality, ForPDF gives you everything for free. Merge dozens of PDFs for your thesis, convert hundreds of images for your presentation - all without spending a cent or hitting any limits.
