ORGANISE
ANNOTATE
One app instead of ten browser tabs
The jobs you actually do with PDFs, done properly — with undo, redo and a version history behind every one of them.
Merge & split
Combine documents losslessly, extract page ranges, or pull a single page into its own file.
Page thumbnails
Drag to reorder, rotate, duplicate or delete — with multi-select for bulk changes.
Draw and place a signature
Sign with your trackpad, then resize and rotate it with the scroll wheel before you drop it.
13 rubber stamps
APPROVED, DRAFT, VOID, CONFIDENTIAL and more, placed exactly where you click.
Highlight and annotate
Highlight, underline, strike through and drop sticky notes anywhere on the page.
Fill forms
Text fields, checkboxes and dropdowns — then flatten them so they cannot be edited.
OCR for scans
Recognise text in scanned documents in dozens of languages and copy it straight out.
AES-256 protection
Encrypt with a password and decide whether printing and copying are allowed.
Watermarks
Diagonal text across every page, at the opacity you choose.
Compression
Re-save at the best compression and see exactly how much you saved.
Export
Every page as a PNG, or the whole document as plain text.
Version history
Undo, redo, and jump back to any earlier state of the document.
Open, edit, save. That is the whole loop.
Open or drop a PDF
Drag a file onto the window, or drop several at once to merge them. Your document opens instantly — nothing leaves your machine.
Work on it
Reorder pages by dragging thumbnails, rotate, sign, stamp, highlight, fill forms. Every action is undoable and every version is kept.
Save it
Save over the original or export a copy, protected with AES-256 and the print and copy permissions you choose.
Your documents never leave your computer
Most "free PDF tools" upload your contract to a server you have never heard of. 1TruePDF does all of its work locally, which is why it also works on a plane.
- No uploads. Every operation runs on your own CPU.
- No account. Install it and open a file. That is the onboarding.
- No watermarks. The file you save is the file you made.
- Signed and notarised. macOS builds pass Gatekeeper without warnings.
Frequently asked
Do my files get uploaded anywhere?
No. Every operation runs on your own computer. 1TruePDF does not need a network connection to do its work, and it never sends your documents anywhere.
Does it work without an internet connection?
Yes, completely. Open it on a plane and everything still works.
Which platforms are supported?
macOS 12 or later (Apple silicon and Intel) and Windows 10 or later.
Will it add a watermark to my documents?
Never. The only watermark that appears is one you add yourself.
Can it read scanned documents?
Yes. Built-in OCR recognises text in scans in dozens of languages, and you can copy the result or export it as a text file.
Can I undo a mistake?
Every action goes through undo and redo, and a version history lets you jump back to any earlier state of the document.
