FunPDF is a comprehensive online PDF processing platform that brings together 20 powerful tools in one workspace. Whether you need to convert, edit, merge, split, compress, or secure PDF files, everything happens directly in your web browser with no software installation required.

What Makes FunPDF Different?

Unlike traditional PDF software that requires downloads and installations, FunPDF operates entirely in your browser. This means you can access our full suite of PDF tools from any device - desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone - as long as you have an internet connection. Your files are processed securely, and we automatically delete them after processing to protect your privacy.

Comprehensive PDF Tools Suite

Convert PDFs to Any Format

Transform your PDF documents into editable formats for maximum flexibility:

  • PDF to Word: Convert PDFs to fully editable Word documents (DOCX) while preserving formatting, tables, and layouts. Choose which pages to convert, control image quality (High/Medium/Low), and adjust DPI settings (150/200/300) for optimal results.

  • PDF to Excel: Extract tables from PDFs into Excel spreadsheets with intelligent auto-detection. Fine-tune table detection strategies to capture data accurately, perfect for financial reports and data analysis.

  • PDF to Images: Convert each PDF page to high-quality images in JPG, PNG, or TIFF format. Set custom DPI, image quality, and choose specific pages to export.

  • PDF to HTML: Transform PDF documents into responsive HTML files with embedded styles, perfect for web publishing and content migration.

Convert Any Format to PDF

Create professional PDFs from various file types:

  • Office to PDF: Convert Word (DOC/DOCX), Excel (XLS/XLSX), and PowerPoint (PPT/PPTX) files to PDF with pixel-perfect formatting preservation. Ideal for creating non-editable versions of business documents.

  • Images to PDF: Merge multiple images (JPG, PNG, TIFF, BMP, WebP) into a single PDF with customizable page sizes, margins, and fit options.

  • HTML to PDF: Convert HTML files or code to PDF with full CSS3 support. Customize page size, orientation, margins, headers, footers, and rendering options for pixel-perfect output.

  • URL to PDF: Archive any webpage as a PDF by simply entering its URL. Perfect for saving web content for offline viewing or documentation.

  • Markdown to PDF: Transform Markdown documents into formatted PDFs with auto-generated table of contents, syntax-highlighted code blocks, and math equation support.

  • Text to PDF: Convert plain text files to professionally formatted PDFs with customizable fonts, themes, and optional line numbers.

Organize and Edit PDFs

Powerful tools to manage and modify your PDF documents:

  • Merge PDF: Combine multiple PDF files into one with advanced page management. Drag-and-drop reordering, rotate individual pages, add blank pages, and select specific pages from each document. Two view modes (File View and Pages View) give you complete control.

  • Split PDF: Extract specific pages or divide PDFs into multiple files using custom page ranges. Perfect for separating chapters, sections, or creating individual documents from bulk PDFs.

  • Compress PDF: Reduce file sizes with three compression levels - Low (best quality), Medium (balanced), or High (smallest size). Smart image optimization achieves 50-90% size reduction while maintaining visual quality.

  • Add Watermark: Protect and brand your PDFs with custom text or image watermarks. Control fonts, colors, opacity, rotation angles, and choose from nine preset positions or custom placement. Apply as single stamps, tiled patterns, or diagonal overlays.

Secure Your PDFs

Military-grade security for sensitive documents:

  • Encrypt PDF: Password-protect PDFs with AES-256 or AES-128 encryption. Set user passwords (required to open) and owner passwords (control permissions). Configure granular permissions: allow/deny printing, copying, editing, annotations, forms, assembly, and high-quality printing.

  • Decrypt PDF: Remove password protection from PDFs you own by providing the correct password. Unlock encrypted files for editing or sharing.

Advanced OCR Tools

Transform scanned documents into searchable, editable PDFs:

  • Scan to Searchable PDF: Add OCR text layers to scanned PDFs, making them fully searchable and selectable. Supports 12 languages including English, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, and more. Create PDF/A archival formats and process custom page ranges.

  • PDF Enhancement: Automatically deskew crooked scanned pages, remove background noise, enhance contrast, and clean up scanning artifacts. Perfect for improving readability of scanned documents.

How FunPDF Works

Smart Processing Modes

FunPDF intelligently handles files of different sizes:

Small Files (≤10MB): Process instantly with synchronous conversion. Your files are converted in real-time without ever being stored on our servers - maximum speed and privacy.

Large Files (10MB - 200MB): Use asynchronous background processing with real-time progress tracking. Files are temporarily stored during conversion and automatically deleted after 2 hours for your security.

  • Client-Side Processing: Most operations happen directly in your browser using Web Workers for heavy computations
