Only PDF Editor
The private PDF editor — no upload, no login, no watermark
Free online PDF editor — edit any PDF, add text, images & signatures, merge, split, compress and convert PDF to Word/Excel, all 100% in your browser. No upload, no login, no watermark.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Only PDF Editor because I was tired of the same three catches with every "free" PDF tool:
They upload your files to their servers — not great when it's a contract, an ID, or a bank statement.
They stamp a watermark across your output.
They cap you at a few files a day, then push a subscription.
So I made one that fixes all three. Everything runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly — your files never leave your device. That means it's private by design, fast (no upload wait), and it even works offline once loaded.
What you can do — all free, no login, no watermark:
✏️ Full editor: text, images, shapes, highlights, signatures
🔀 Merge, split, compress, rotate, reorder & delete pages
🔁 Convert: Word ↔ PDF, Excel ↔ PDF, images ↔ PDF
✍️ Sign PDFs and add watermarks
🔡 OCR scanned documents into searchable text
🛡️ Password-protect and properly redact sensitive info
💬 Chat with your PDF
It installs as a lightweight app (PWA) on desktop and mobile too.
A few advanced tools are Pro — that's what keeps the core tools free forever. Everything else is genuinely free with no limits.
I'd love your honest feedback — what's the PDF task that annoys you most? 🙏
how do you actually handle bigger files like 50+ page PDFs without an upload, is it all processed locally in the browser
Finally a PDF editor that actually runs in the browser without forcing a sign-up. Tested the merge and text edit on a 20-page doc and it handled everything smoothly with no watermark.
The fact that it runs entirely in the browser without uploading anything feels genuinely useful for quick edits on shared computers. Merged a couple of files and the result came out clean with no fuss.
the fact that everything runs entirely client-side without a single upload is genuinely impressive, makes me trust it way more than the usual sketchy free pdf sites
The no-upload thing actually works, which is rare. Merged a few contracts and added a signature in under a minute without anything leaving my browser.
Privacy-first approach with no uploads feels rare for tools like this, and the clean, watermark-free interface actually makes editing feel quick instead of a chore.
How does this actually run without uploading files? Is everything being processed locally with WebAssembly, or is there some clever trick with browser APIs I'm missing?
