About CedarPDF
Inspired by the cedar tree - a symbol of Dignity and Beauty in British Columbia, Canada. CedarPDF is built by a small team in Vancouver. We are a non-profit project on a mission to redefine the PDF user experience.
Unlike commercial tools that lock features behind paywalls or harvest your data, we believe PDF tools should be accessible, transparent, and private. Your documents stay on your device. All processing happens 100% locally in your browser, no uploads, no sign up.
CedarPDF is designed for compatibility across PCs, tablets and mobile devices (Windows/Mac/Linux/iOS/Android).
Frequently Asked Questions
CedarPDF runs the processing engine within your browser using a frontend architecture. When you use CedarPDF, every operation, merging, splitting, compressing, happens in your device.
Your PDF files are never uploaded to remote server. Once the process is complete and you close the tab or browser, all data is cleared from local memory.
CedarPDF's core PDF processing modules utilize open source libraries, which are maintained by a global community, ensuring complete transparency, security, and constant updates.
In the age of AI, data has become the most valuable resource. When you upload documents to servers, even those with good privacy policies, your data faces multiple risks:
1. Server vulnerabilities: Uploaded files are stored on remote servers that can be hacked or breached, exposing your sensitive information to malicious actors.
2. AI training: Many online services use uploaded content to train their AI models. Once your data is used for training, it becomes part of the AI's knowledge base and may be regurgitated in responses to other users.
3. Loss of control: Once uploaded, you have no way to know how your data is being used, who has access to it.
CedarPDF eliminates all these risks by processing everything locally. Your documents never leave your device, never get stored on any server, and never become training data for AI systems.
This is a non-profit project. All team members work voluntarily.
All files are processed in the user's device, eliminating the need to rent servers. Development and operating costs are kept to a minimum and are covered by donations. We don't have investors to please or shareholders to pay, which allows us to keep everything free.
We hope you enjoy this free tools!
No. CedarPDF is truly free, with no limit on the number of files or file size. Other online tools limit these metrics because they want users to upgrade to paid subscriptions.
The only limit is your device's own processing capability.

Just open the website and start working.

No third-party access: No employees, contractors, or partners ever have access to your documents.
Your data stays in your device, under your control.
