FAQ
Questions people ask before they start
These answers are visible on the page and also represented with FAQ structured data.
Which preset should I choose?
Use screen or ebook for email and web sharing, and printer or prepress when you need to preserve image quality for printing.
Will compression reduce quality?
Smaller presets reduce image resolution to save space. Choose printer or prepress to keep quality high.
Do I need an account to use this tool?
No. You can run the allowed number of free conversions per browser right here on this page. Create a free workspace to keep conversion history and process larger volumes.
Are my files kept private?
Uploads travel over HTTPS into private storage — never a public folder. Your result opens on a non-indexed link that is removed automatically after one day.
Is there a size or page limit?
Yes. Each upload is limited in size, and free page and file counts follow the free plan. Larger volumes unlock after you create a workspace.
What happens to my result afterwards?
The generated file is available on a private, non-indexed download link and is cleaned up automatically after one day.
