Question 1

Is PDFCraft really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every tool listed on the site is free to use with no account, no watermark on your output, and no daily limit on the number of documents you process.

Question 2

Do I need to create an account?

Accepted Answer

No. PDFCraft works without signing up. Your saved stamps and preferences are stored locally in your own browser.

Question 3

Does PDFCraft work on mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every tool is mobile-first, with touch-friendly drag and drop, large tap targets, and layouts that adapt from phones to desktops.

Question 4

How many PDFs can I merge at once?

Accepted Answer

You can merge as many files as your device memory allows. In practice, dozens of documents merge in a couple of seconds because everything runs locally in your browser.

Question 5

Can I change the order of files before merging?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Drag any file card into position — the merged document follows the order shown on screen, top to bottom.

Question 6

Will merging reduce the quality of my PDFs?

Accepted Answer

No. Merging copies the original page objects as-is, so text stays selectable and images keep their original resolution.

Question 7

Can I extract just a few pages?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Enter a page range such as 2-5 to pull out a section, or choose 'split every page' to get one PDF per page.

Question 8

How do I split a PDF into multiple documents?

Accepted Answer

Upload your file, pick 'Split every page', then download the results. Each page becomes its own PDF, ready to share separately.

Question 9

How much smaller will my PDF get?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the source file. Documents with embedded metadata, duplicated resources, and uncompressed streams shrink the most; already-optimised files change very little.

Question 10

Which compression level should I choose?

Accepted Answer

Use Low for print-ready documents, Medium for everyday sharing, and High when you need the smallest possible email attachment.

Question 11

Can I control where the watermark appears?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Choose from five position presets — top left, top right, centre, bottom left, bottom right — and adjust size, colour and opacity before applying.

Question 12

Does the watermark apply to every page?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the text watermark is applied to all pages of the document in a single pass.

Question 13

What can the Stamp Creator do?

Accepted Answer

It lets you design text, date and time stamps with full control over font, size, weight, colours, borders, shapes, opacity and rotation, then drag them precisely onto any page.

Question 14

Can I reuse a stamp later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Save any stamp to My Saved Stamps, organise it into folders, mark favourites, and apply it to a new document in one click. You can also export your library as JSON for backup.

Question 15

Are there ready-made stamp templates?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the gallery includes professional Office, Government, Education, Hospital, Business and Legal packs in rectangle, rounded, circle, double-circle, oval and square shapes. Every template stays fully editable.

Question 16

Can I combine several photos into one PDF?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload multiple images, drag them into the order you want, rotate any of them, then export a single PDF.

Question 17

Which page sizes are supported?

Accepted Answer

A4, Letter, Legal and an Auto mode that matches each page to the image dimensions. You can also set margins and image quality.

Question 18

Can I export only certain pages?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Preview the document, tick the pages you need, and export just those as JPG or PNG.

Question 19

How do I download all images at once?

Accepted Answer

Choose the ZIP download option and every selected page is bundled into a single archive.

Question 20

Do you upload or store my files?

Accepted Answer

No. The current tools process your documents entirely inside your browser using client-side rendering — your files never leave your device.

Question 21

What data do you collect?

Accepted Answer

Only basic, aggregated usage analytics such as page views and which tool was used. We never inspect document contents.

Question 22

Is it safe to stamp or sign confidential documents?

Accepted Answer

Because processing is local to your browser, confidential documents are never transmitted. Closing the tab clears everything except items you explicitly saved locally.

Question 23

Is the connection encrypted?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The site is served over HTTPS, so all page and asset traffic is encrypted in transit.

Question 24

Will PDFCraft stay free?

Accepted Answer

The core tools will remain free. We may introduce an optional paid plan later for advanced AI features such as Chat with PDF and summarisation.

Question 25

Do you take payments today?

Accepted Answer

No. There is no checkout, no subscription and no stored payment information on PDFCraft at this time.
