Limitations
Processing is browser-local; document bytes are never uploaded.
Unencrypted PDFs only. 50 MiB per PDF, 100 MiB total, 20 files and 500 pages. A worker can be cancelled and stops after 120 seconds.
Edited documents do not preserve document-level forms, bookmarks, attachments, actions or digital signatures. Keep the original and review outputs.
At most 100 selected pages, 12 megapixels per rendered page/image and 100 megapixels total. Some advanced masks/transfer filters are unsupported; decoding failures stop rather than produce partial output.
Embedded text only, not OCR. Reading order depends on document structure, especially columns. The preview truncates at 200,000 characters; downloads retain complete bounded results.
