PDF Tools
What Each PDF Tool Does
Convert & Optimize
- Makes a PDF smaller, so it is easier to email, upload or store.
- Turns Word, Excel and PowerPoint files, images (JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP, WebP, TIFF and HEIC) and DRM-free ebooks (EPUB, MOBI and AZW3) into PDFs.
- Combines several PDFs into one. Drag the files into the order you want, and turn any file that is sideways, before you merge.
- Breaks a PDF into smaller files: by page ranges, by pulling out single pages, or into files no bigger than a size you choose. You see every page before you split.
- Makes a scanned PDF searchable, so you can find, select and copy its text.
