When a PDF misbehaves
Why files get bigger instead of smaller, why copied text comes out scrambled, and what a password actually protects.
Why iBuildPDF
Files stay on your device
Almost every tool here runs in your browser, and for those the document is never uploaded — there is nothing for us to store, log or lose. The handful that need a server say so on their own page, before you choose a file.
Free, with no paywall
No watermark on the result and no upgrade prompt after the work is done. You get the file you came for.
No account needed
Open a tool, use it, close the tab. There is nothing to sign up for and no email to hand over first.
Honest about the limits
Compression is lossy and our editor adds content rather than rewriting text. Both are stated on the page. Tools that aren't ready aren't published.
