PDFio guide

Choose the right PDF tool for the job.

Use this guide when you know the document problem but are not sure which tool to open first.

Use Compress PDF when a file is too large for email, WhatsApp or an upload portal. Image-heavy PDFs usually compress better than text-only PDFs.

Use Merge PDFs to combine certificates, forms, annexures or reports. Drag file cards to set the final order.

Use Split PDF, Extract Pages or Remove Pages depending on whether you want to create, keep or delete selected pages.

Use OCR PDF to extract text from scans, or Make PDF Searchable when you want a PDF that can be searched and copied.

Use Protect PDF to add a password, Unlock PDF when you know the password, and Repair PDF before retrying a rejected or malformed file.

Use Word to PDF, Excel to PDF or PowerPoint to PDF to create stable sharing copies from Office files.
