Privacy-First PDF Processing

Most online PDF tools — including iLovePDF and SmallPDF — upload every file to their servers. Your confidential documents, contracts, and invoices are transmitted and stored on third-party infrastructure.

SlapMyWeb takes a different approach. The majority of our PDF tools run entirely in your browser using open-source JavaScript libraries: pdf-lib for creating and modifying PDFs, and Mozilla's pdf.js for rendering and text extraction. These files physically cannot leave your device.

For features that require a conversion engine — like Word to PDF, Excel to PDF, and PowerPoint conversions — we use server-side LibreOffice processing. Files are processed in an isolated temporary directory and deleted immediately after conversion. We do not store, analyze, or retain any uploaded documents.

For businesses handling sensitive data — legal firms, healthcare providers, financial institutions — our client-side tools eliminate data handling risk entirely. Our server-side tools minimize it with instant deletion and no persistent storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are my PDF files private?+
Most tools (merge, split, compress, edit, sign, etc.) run in your browser — files never leave your device. Server-side tools (Word/Excel/PowerPoint converters) upload files for processing, but they are deleted immediately after conversion. We do not store or analyze any documents.
How does this compare to iLovePDF or SmallPDF?+
We offer 34 PDF tools — more than iLovePDF's 28. Key differences: (1) Most of our tools are client-side (theirs are all server-side). (2) No daily limits or signup required. (3) No ads. Plus we have unique tools they don't: visual PDF compare, HTML to PDF, and in-browser OCR.
Which tools are client-side vs server-side?+
Most PDF editing and page tools process files in your browser. The six Office conversions (PDF to and from Word, Excel and PowerPoint) use a server because LibreOffice is required. Check each tool page for its processing details.
Is there a file size limit?+
The shared browser PDF upload accepts files up to 100 MB each. The six Office conversions support files up to 50 MB each. Large documents can also be limited by available device memory.
Can I convert Word, Excel, and PowerPoint to PDF?+
Yes. We support Word (DOC/DOCX), Excel (XLS/XLSX), and PowerPoint (PPT/PPTX) to PDF, plus the reverse — PDF to Word (already existed), PDF to Excel, and PDF to PowerPoint. All powered by LibreOffice.
Do these tools work on mobile?+
Yes. All tools work on smartphones and tablets with modern browsers. The interfaces are fully responsive. Large PDFs may process slower on mobile.
Can I edit text directly in a PDF?+
The PDF Editor can replace supported detected text lines while preserving their original font where possible. It also organizes pages. Adding freeform images and shapes is not available in that editor yet. The PDF Form Filler handles interactive form fields; the PDF Redactor handles content removal.
Can I sign PDFs electronically?+
Yes. Our PDF Signer supports three signature methods: draw with mouse/finger, type your name in a script font, or upload a signature image. Place it anywhere on any page.
Are these tools really free?+
The PDF tools are free to use without signup or output watermarks. Browser PDF uploads accept files up to 100 MB, and Office conversions up to 50 MB.
Can I use these tools for commercial work?+
Absolutely. No restrictions on commercial use. Process client documents, business reports, invoices — anything. Client-side tools leave no trace; server-side tools delete files immediately.
