PDF is the format most schools, employers, and government offices ask for by default β€” resumes, contracts, tax forms, academic papers, and scanned IDs all tend to end up as PDFs sooner or later. It is reliable for reading and printing, but not always easy to change once a file is created. Combining two PDFs, pulling out a single page, or fixing a sideways scan usually means downloading extra software just to make one small edit.

PDFTools is built to handle those everyday edits without the extra software. Each tool on this page focuses on one task β€” merging, splitting, converting, rotating, numbering, or watermarking β€” so you can find what you need and get back to work quickly. You can merge PDF files, split PDF documents, convert images to PDF, or turn a PDF into an editable Word document, all from the same site.

Converting between formats is usually the trickiest part, since a PDF is a fixed layout rather than editable text. Our PDF to Word and PDF to Excel tools do their best to preserve the original structure, including paragraphs, tables, and spacing, but results can vary depending on how the source PDF was created. PDFs exported directly from Word or Google Docs generally convert more cleanly than scanned documents or PDFs with complex layouts.

Every tool runs in the browser, works on desktop and mobile, and does not require an account. Pick a tool above, follow the instructions on its page, and download your file when it is ready.
