About

HonestPDF is a collection of privacy-first PDF tools that run entirely in your browser, so documents are processed on your device instead of being uploaded to a server. The site positions itself as an alternative to subscription-based PDF services by offering free tools with no account required. It includes common PDF utilities such as merge, split, organize, compress, encrypt, unlock, redact, and sign. It also provides conversion tools like Word to PDF, PDF to Word, image to PDF, PDF to images, PDF to PPT, PDF to Excel, HTML to PDF, and Markdown to PDF. Additional utilities include a privacy scanner to find sensitive data locally, OCR to extract text from scanned PDFs, and an experimental AI summary feature using Chrome’s built-in AI.
