No. Pages are read, rearranged and saved by your browser. The site is not allowed to send data to any other server, and it keeps working offline after the first visit. ### In what order are the pages merged? Exactly as shown in the grid, left to right and top to bottom. Files are added in the order you drop them, and you can drag any page anywhere. ### Is there a limit on files or pages? There is no limit set by the site. The practical limit is your device's memory, so very large scans may be slow on a phone. ### Will the merged PDF keep links and bookmarks? Page content, images and fonts are kept. Document-level features such as bookmarks, form fields and links between pages may not carry over into the merged file. ### How do I split a PDF into single pages? Open the PDF, choose Split and then Every page. You get one PDF per page, bundled in a zip file. ### What does 8- mean in a range? It means page 8 through the last page. Likewise -3 means pages 1 to 3. ### Why do I get a zip file? Browsers handle one download at a time reliably, so several PDFs are bundled in one zip. If the result is a single PDF, you get the PDF itself. ### Does rotating reduce quality? No. The page content is copied as is and only its rotation value changes, so text and images keep their quality. ### Can I rotate just one page? Yes. Use the turn button under that page. Other pages stay as they are. ### Does it change my original file? No. You download a new PDF and the original stays untouched. ### Can I undo a deleted page? Yes. Press Undo in the message that appears after deleting. It restores the pages in their original positions. ### Is the deleted content really gone from the new file? The new PDF is built only from the pages you keep, so deleted pages are not copied into it. Your original file is not changed. ### Can I delete pages from several PDFs at once? Yes. Add more files, delete pages from any of them, and the saved PDF combines what remains in grid order. ### क्या मेरी PDF कहीं अपलोड होती हैं? नहीं। पेज आपके ब्राउज़र में पढ़े, ठीक किए और सेव किए जाते हैं। साइट को किसी और सर्वर को डेटा भेजने की इजाज़त नहीं है, और पहली बार खुलने के बाद वह ऑफ़लाइन भी चलती है। ### पेज किस क्रम में जुड़ते हैं? ठीक उसी क्रम में जैसा ग्रिड में दिखता है, बाएँ से दाएँ और ऊपर से नीचे। फ़ाइलें उसी क्रम में जुड़ती हैं जिसमें आपने डालीं, और आप कोई भी पेज कहीं भी खींच सकते हैं। ### क्या फ़ाइलों या पेजों की कोई सीमा है? साइट ने कोई सीमा नहीं रखी। व्यावहारिक सीमा आपके डिवाइस की मेमोरी है, इसलिए बहुत बड़े स्कैन फ़ोन पर धीमे हो सकते हैं। ### क्या जुड़ी PDF में लिंक और बुकमार्क रहेंगे? पेज का कंटेंट, इमेज और फ़ॉन्ट रहते हैं। बुकमार्क, फ़ॉर्म फ़ील्ड और पेजों के बीच लिंक जैसे दस्तावेज़-स्तर के फ़ीचर जुड़ी फ़ाइल में न आएँ, ऐसा हो सकता है। ## Other free tools from Paperdost - [Redact PDF](https://paperdost.com/redact/): Black out or blur names, numbers and any text.
