About PDFQuokka
Free, friendly PDF tools that do the job without uploading your files anywhere.
Most online PDF tools ask you to upload your document to their servers, wait in a queue, dodge watermarks, and sometimes sign up or pay. For a quick merge or a photo-to-PDF, that's a lot — and it means handing private files to a stranger.
What we make
PDFQuokka is a growing set of small, focused PDF tools — merge, convert, compress and more. Each one does a single thing well, on any device, with the steps shown clearly.
Private by design
Here's the part that matters: our tools run entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your files are processed on your own device and are never uploaded to a server. There's no queue, nothing stored, and nothing for anyone to leak. It also means many tools keep working even if your connection drops.
Free, with no catch
No accounts, no watermarks, no daily limits. If we ever show ads to keep the lights on, they'll be unobtrusive and will never touch the contents of your files.
Why a quokka?
The quokka is a small Australian marsupial famous for looking like it's always smiling — the friendliest face in the animal kingdom. That's the feeling we want when you need to get a file done: simple, cheerful, no stress.
