Frequently Asked Questions
Is GuruPDF really free?
Yes, within a daily allowance. Every free account gets 15 credits every day to spend on any tool, and each tool shows its credit cost before you start. No credit card, no watermarks. If you need more, you can buy credits or subscribe.
How secure are my files?
Security is our top priority. All file transfers use encrypted SSL connections, and we automatically and permanently delete all uploaded and processed files from our servers within one hour. Your files are processed automatically — we do not read or review them in the ordinary course of business, and we never sell or share their content. In rare cases our staff may access a file only to fix a technical problem, prevent abuse, or comply with the law.
Do I need to create an account?
You can try any tool without an account. To download the result you need a free account with a verified email, which also gives you daily credits and a history of your conversions.
What file formats do you support?
We support a wide range of formats including PDF, Word (DOC/DOCX), Excel (XLS/XLSX), PowerPoint (PPT/PPTX), images (JPG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC, AVIF, TIFF, BMP, SVG, GIF), eBooks (EPUB, MOBI), videos (MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, WEBM), and more.
Is there a file size limit?
File size limits depend on the tool and your plan. On the Free plan, uploads are capped at 50 MB, and many image tools at 20 MB; paid plans raise the cap, up to 500 MB for video tools on Business. The limit that applies to you is shown on each tool's page before you upload.
Can I use GuruPDF on my phone or tablet?
Absolutely. GuruPDF is fully responsive and works seamlessly on all modern devices — smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktops. No app installation is required.
How long does a conversion take?
Most conversions complete in just a few seconds. Larger or more complex files (like multi-page PDFs or long videos) may take up to a minute. You can track the progress in real time on the conversion page.
What tools does GuruPDF offer beyond PDF conversion?
In addition to PDF conversions, we offer tools to merge, split, compress, rotate, watermark, and repair PDFs. We also provide image converters, image optimizers, video converters, and OCR (text recognition) capabilities — over 120 tools in total.
Free online PDF tools to convert, edit, compress, and share
GuruPDF is a free online PDF toolkit for people who need reliable document conversion without installing desktop software. Convert Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and images to PDF; merge, split, compress, rotate, unlock, or protect PDFs; and handle dozens of image and media formats—all in the browser with encrypted uploads and automatic file deletion within one hour.
A complete PDF toolkit in your browser
Instead of juggling multiple apps, GuruPDF centralizes everyday PDF work: conversion between office formats and PDF, page organization, compression for email-friendly sizes, password protection, and unlock when you already know the password. Each tool is a focused page with clear steps so you can finish the job in seconds and download the result.
Whether you are preparing a resume, packaging a report for a client, or cleaning up a scanned pack of invoices, the same simple flow applies: upload, process, download. No installers, no plugins, and no permanent storage of your files on our servers.
- Convert popular office and image formats to and from PDF
- Merge, split, compress, rotate, number, and organize pages
- Protect or unlock PDFs when you control the password
- Works on phone, tablet, and desktop without an app install
Formats and conversions people search for
Search demand clusters around high-intent conversions: Word to PDF, PDF to Word, Excel to PDF, PowerPoint to PDF, JPG to PDF, PDF to JPG, PNG to PDF, and free compress-PDF workflows. GuruPDF covers those paths plus a large library of related image converters (WEBP, HEIC, AVIF, TIFF, SVG, GIF) and specialty tools for HTML, EPUB, and more.
Each converter page explains what the tool does, which inputs it accepts, and what you get back—so you can confirm the right tool before uploading. Related tools are suggested after each job so multi-step workflows (for example compress then merge, or JPG to PDF then protect) stay one click away.
- Office: DOC/DOCX, XLS/XLSX, PPT/PPTX ↔ PDF
- Images: JPG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC, AVIF, TIFF, BMP, SVG, GIF ↔ PDF or other images
- PDF utilities: merge, split, compress, rotate, delete pages, page numbers
- Extra: HTML/URL to PDF, EPUB/MOBI paths, OCR-related tools where available
Edit and organize PDFs without desktop bloat
Not every task is a format change. Teams often need to combine contracts, drop blank pages, rotate a sideways scan, or stamp page numbers before sharing. GuruPDF’s organization tools keep those edits lightweight: process in the cloud, download a clean PDF, and move on.
For richer annotation needs, the in-browser PDF editor supports text, shapes, highlights, whiteout, images, and signatures—then exports through the same credit-aware download path as other tools. That means one account and one privacy model across convert and edit workflows.
- Merge multiple PDFs into a single shareable file
- Split large decks or extract only the pages you need
- Rotate, reorder, and delete pages before delivery
- Optional online editor for annotations and signatures
Security, privacy, and short retention
Files travel over HTTPS. Processing is automated—we do not use your document contents for advertising, and we do not sell file content. Uploaded and converted files are scheduled for automatic deletion within one hour after processing, which keeps storage windows short by design.
Password tools are explicit: protect a PDF when you want a password barrier; unlock only when you provide the existing password for a file you are allowed to open. Guests can try any tool without an account; downloading the result needs a free account, which comes with daily credits and a conversion history, and paid plans raise the limits when you need more.
- Encrypted transport for uploads and downloads
- Automatic deletion within about one hour after processing
- No watermarks on standard free conversions
- Free account to download, with daily credits and history
How a typical GuruPDF session works
Open the tool that matches your task, drop in one or more files (or a URL/text where the tool supports it), adjust options such as page range or compression strength, then start processing. A progress page tracks status and surfaces a signed download link when the job completes and your account is allowed to download.
If you are signed out, you will be asked to create a free account and verify your email before download, so we can grant daily credits fairly and reduce abuse. Email verification for common Chinese webmail domains uses a short numeric code rather than a magic link, which improves deliverability on those providers.
- Pick a tool from the home grid or search
- Upload files and set options on the tool page
- Wait for conversion progress (usually seconds)
- Download the result; files expire after the retention window
Who uses free online PDF tools
Students compress readings for submission portals. Job seekers convert resumes to PDF. Freelancers merge invoices and proposals. Office teams standardize exports from Word or Excel before email. Developers and automation users also call the same capabilities through the GuruPDF API and MCP server when batch conversion is needed.
Because the product is localized across many languages—including Arabic with full RTL layout—global users can follow UI copy in their preferred language while still landing on format-specific SEO pages optimized for clear, practical guidance.
- Students and educators preparing course materials
- HR and candidates exchanging application PDFs
- Small businesses sending quotes, invoices, and contracts
- Developers integrating conversion via API or MCP
