Frequently asked questions
Will the result still have selectable text?
No. Grayscale output rebuilds pages as images. Keep the original if accessibility, search or later editing is important.
Is my content sent to a server?
No. Processing runs inside your browser. Optional editor recovery saves a draft on this device only. Read the privacy policy.
Will my original file be changed?
No. Downloaded results are separate copies. Open the finished output before sharing it or deleting an original.
