How does Ask PDF work?

AI reads your document's text, finds passages relevant to your question, and answers — pointing to where it found them.

Can it answer questions about scanned PDFs?

Pages without a text layer can be read visually on shorter documents. For scan-heavy files, run OCR PDF first for the most reliable answers.

Does my file get uploaded?

No. Your browser extracts the text and only the relevant parts are sent to the AI — the PDF file itself never leaves your device.

Does it handle multiple documents?

Single-document chat is the focus at launch; multi-document support is on the roadmap.

PixPDF is a collection of fast, secure PDF tools for everyday productivity. Compress, merge, split, convert, sign and edit PDFs right in your browser — no sign-up, no install.

Is PixPDF safe to use?

Yes. Most tools process files directly on your device, so nothing is uploaded. Conversions to and from Office formats run on our server and files are deleted immediately after. Files are never kept permanently or shared.

Do I need to download PixPDF to use it?

No. Every tool runs in your browser. Just open the page, drop your file, and download the result. You can also install PixPDF as an app if you prefer.

What can I do with PixPDF?

You can convert files to and from PDF, merge, split, compress and organize pages, edit text, fill forms, sign, watermark, run OCR and extract text.

What file formats does PixPDF support?

PixPDF works with PDF files, common image formats like JPG and PNG, and Office documents — DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, PPT and PPTX.

Can I edit PDFs directly in my browser?

Yes. The Edit PDF tool lets you rewrite text already on the page and save a new copy without installing any software.

Can I convert files to and from PDF with PixPDF?

Yes. You can turn images, Word, Excel and PowerPoint files into PDFs, and convert PDFs back to images, Office formats, or text.

Will PixPDF keep my original formatting after conversion?

PixPDF preserves the content and layout of your original files as closely as possible. For page-level changes, pages you do not touch stay exactly as they were.

Can I use PixPDF on both computer and mobile?

Yes. PixPDF works in any modern browser on desktop, tablet and phone, and it can be installed as an app on any device.

Is there a PixPDF app for mobile?

Yes. PixPDF is an installable web app — open it in your mobile browser and choose “Add to Home Screen” to get the full app experience.

What should I do if a PDF fails to process?

Check that the file is a valid PDF and not password-protected, then try again. Very large files may exceed your device memory. If it still fails, contact support.
