How PDF Editor Works
100% Client-Side Processing
Your PDF files are processed entirely in your web browser. No data is ever uploaded to any server. All editing, viewing, and exporting happens locally on your device.
How It Works
- Open a PDF: When you select or drag a PDF file, it is read directly by your browser using the File API. The file never leaves your computer.
- View & Edit: The PDF is rendered using PDF.js (Mozilla's open-source PDF viewer). All annotations, text, shapes, and images are added using Fabric.js canvas overlays.
- Download: When you export, pdf-lib (a pure JavaScript library) combines your original PDF with your edits to create a new file, which is downloaded directly to your device.
Privacy Guarantees
- No server uploads - files stay on your device
- No cloud storage or third-party services
- No tracking of document contents
- No account required
- Works offline after initial page load
