Questions about Ship Toolkit PDF tools
These answers apply to all browser-based PDF tools on Ship Toolkit.
Are my PDF files uploaded to a server?
No. Ship Toolkit processes PDFs locally with JavaScript in your browser. Your files are not uploaded to Ship Toolkit.
Will a PDF tool change my original file?
No. The tool creates a new file for you to download. The original PDF on your device is not overwritten.
Which PDF files may not work?
Password-protected, encrypted, damaged, or unusually complex PDFs may not open or process correctly. Very large files may exceed your device's available memory.
Which browsers are supported?
Use a current version of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari. JavaScript must be enabled, and older browsers may not support every feature.
Can I use the PDF tools on a phone or tablet?
Yes, but detailed editing is easier on a larger screen. Performance and maximum file size depend on the memory available on your device.
Why does a large PDF take longer to process?
Processing happens on your device. PDFs with many pages, high-resolution images, or complex content require more memory and processing time.
