One PDF? Fix it properly. A folder full? Walk away and let Desktop handle it.
Less clicking. Less waiting. Far less “do that again.”
PDF-File Desktop turns the tools you already reach for into a focused workspace built for real document work.
01
Drop in a folder
One file or a hundred.
02
Run your tools
Individually, in batches, or as a pipeline.
03
Get finished files
Saved exactly where you need them.
PDF Reader & Editor
Open the file. Stay in the file.
Read, search, annotate, rearrange, and finish a PDF in one continuous workspace. No export-import detour. No collection of one-purpose tabs.
- Highlight, underline, draw, add notes, text, images, and visual covers
- Reorder, rotate, remove, or insert pages visually
- Search the document and jump through its outline
- Save a clean finished PDF when you are done
The part that changes your week
Teach it the job once.
Desktop is not just a bigger tool list. It turns repetitive PDF chores into workflows you can run again without rebuilding every step.
02
Pipelines
Chain tools into a saved recipe. OCR, compress, protect, and export in one run instead of four separate jobs.
03
Watched folders
Drop in a file and let Desktop detect it, process it, and place the finished version in a dedicated folder.
Whatever the PDF needs next, it’s probably already here.
Make the PDF yours
Reorder, rotate, crop, remove, duplicate, annotate, sign, watermark, number, and organize pages without bouncing between apps.
Move between formats
Turn PDFs into images, Word, slides, text, JSON, PDF/A, and more—or bring Office files, images, HTML, and PostScript into PDF.
Fix the files that fight back
Compress oversized documents, repair damaged PDFs, recognize text with OCR, extract useful data, and create comfortable reading themes.
Keep control of the document
Add password protection, unlock files you have access to, flatten forms, edit metadata, and finish with a typed signature.
