One PDF up to 40 MB. Export up to 50 pages at a time. Password-protected PDFs are not supported. Files stay on your device.
Common questions
Does this change my original PDF?
No. The tool creates a new download and leaves your original file unchanged.
Can I process a protected document?
Password-protected files are not supported. Use an unlocked copy you are authorized to edit.
