Everyday PDF tasks, in one calm place.

Local by design
The free tools on this page read and create PDFs in your browser. Closing or refreshing clears your selected files.
Clear limits
Every tool says what it does. Password-protected or corrupted PDFs may need a specialist desktop application.
Made to grow
We are building toward deeper workflows, a membership plan, and an offline desktop app without making the basics complicated.
Fair usage, clear choices
Pay for the heavy jobs, not every click.
Browser-local tools will stay free. Future cloud work—OCR, high-fidelity conversions, AI, signing, and large batches—will use visible credits. Visitors will see the credit cost before any task begins.

Tell us what you needQuestions
Before you start
Are my files uploaded?
No. The free browser tools and visual editor process selected files in your browser. Files are not sent to the PDF Work Today server by these tools.
How does the visual editor work?
Open Edit PDF, select a file, then place editable text, highlights, shapes or an image directly on the page. It exports the visual result as a PDF. Editing text already embedded inside a PDF is a separate cloud feature and will be labelled when available.
Why do I see an advertisement area?
Free tools need a sustainable business model. Advertisement spaces are clearly labelled, and a future paid plan is intended to reduce or remove advertising.
Practical PDF guides
Better results start with a simpler workflow.
How to merge PDFs
Choose files in the order you want them to appear, then merge them into one shareable document. Keep source files nearby until you confirm the result.
Merge PDFs now →How to extract PDF pages
Enter individual pages or ranges such as 1-3, 7, 10-12 to create a smaller document without altering the original.
Extract pages now →How to rotate a scanned PDF
Use a 90°, 180°, or 270° turn to make every page readable before sharing. This tool applies one rotation to all pages.
Rotate pages now →How to watermark a PDF
Stamp a clear text label such as DRAFT, CONFIDENTIAL, or a project name across each page before distributing copies.
