PDF Tools — Rotate, Split, Merge, Compress & Extract Pages

PDF Tools toolkit: rotate, split, merge, compress, extract pages. Local-only, no upload, no signup. Right-click PDF to open.

A pocket toolkit for the PDF jobs that take 30 seconds and ten clicks somewhere else. Open the popup, drop a file, pick a tool — rotate, split, merge, compress, or extract pages — and the result lands in your downloads folder. No upload to a website, no signup, no paywall. ✨ FEATURES 🔄 Rotate PDF — turn pages 90, 180, or 270 degrees. The rotate tool handles single pages or whole documents and outputs a clean file with the rotation baked in. ✂️ Split PDF — break a multi-page document into separate files. The split tool offers per-page splits, range splits (pages 1-5, 6-10), or bookmark-based splits. 🔗 Merge PDF — combine many documents into one. The merge flow keeps the original page order and writes a single output. Reorder before merging with a drag handle. 📉 Compress PDF — shrink the file size for email attachments and uploads. The compress logic recompresses embedded images while preserving text quality. 📄 Extract PDF Pages — pull individual pages out of a long document. The extract pages flow keeps the source untouched and writes a new file with just the pages you picked. 🎯 WHO USES IT 📚 Students assembling a multi-source bibliography who need to merge PDF files from different libraries. 💼 Office workers who scan a contract upside-down and want a fast rotate tool without opening a heavy desktop app. 📑 Lawyers and paralegals who extract PDF pages from long discovery documents for case files. 📧 Sales teams who need to compress PDF files to fit Gmail attachment limits. 📰 Researchers who split PDF chapters out of long ebooks for note-taking. 🛠️ HOW IT WORKS 🔒 Every tool runs entirely in your browser. Files never leave your device. No upload, no remote logging, no tracking pixel. 📁 Drop a document onto the popup, click the toolbar icon, or right-click any PDF link on the web and pick "Open with PDF Tools" — the extension loads the file with tool tabs ready. 🪄 Pick the tool tab — Rotate, Split, Merge, Compress, or Extract — and the right options appear. Each operation finishes in under a second for files under 10MB. 📥 The output file downloads automatically. The original stays on your device, untouched. 🚀 WHY THIS EXTENSION Most document tasks involve uploading the file to a website, hitting a paywall after the third upload, and waiting through a slow encode. This bundle skips that. Drag, pick a tool, done — and your files never leave your machine. 📝 USE CASES 📚 Academic — split a long textbook into chapter files for easier reference; merge cited papers into one bibliography document. 💼 Business — compress contracts before emailing; extract signature pages from a 200-page master agreement. 📄 Legal — extract PDF pages from depositions for case prep; rotate scanned exhibits that came in sideways. 🏥 Medical — split a long patient chart into per-visit files; merge intake forms before sending to a specialist. 🎨 Design — extract design pages from a brand book; rotate landscape spreads to portrait before printing. 💡 TIPS — Right-click any PDF link on the web and pick "Open with PDF Tools" to skip the download-then-open dance. — The split tool supports custom ranges — paste "1-3, 7-9, 12" to extract three slices at once. — The compress tool offers a quality slider; smaller outputs use lower-resolution images. — Merge accepts drag-to-reorder; drop pages in the right sequence before exporting. — The rotate tool remembers your last rotation, useful for repeated landscape exports. Install the toolkit and stop hopping between websites for every small document task.
