If you can browse the internet and open a web browser, you can use KovaPDF.
Click the "Edit PDF" tool on the main menu. Upload your file, then use the toolbar to add text, highlight content, draw freehand, or insert images. When you're done, click "Save" to download your edited PDF.
Select "Convert PDF" from the tools list. Choose your input file, select the output format (Word, Excel, JPG, PNG, etc.), and hit "Convert." The converted file downloads instantly.
Choose "Compress PDF," upload your file, and select the compression level (low, medium, high). KovaPDF will shrink the file while keeping the content readable. Download your compressed version in seconds.
Click "Merge PDF," drag and drop all the files you want to combine, arrange them in the correct order, and click "Merge." You'll get a single PDF containing all your pages.
Select "Split PDF," upload your document, and choose how to divide it - by specific pages, every Nth page, or extract individual pages. Download the separated files immediately.
Go to "OCR PDF," upload a scanned image or PDF, select your language, and run OCR. The tool will recognize the text and make it searchable and editable. You can then export it as a text file or Word document.
- Batch Processing: KovaPDF allows you to process multiple files at once for compression, conversion, and merging. Save time by uploading several files simultaneously.
- Keyboard Shortcuts: Use Ctrl+S to save your work quickly, Ctrl+Z to undo changes, and Ctrl+Y to redo.
- File Security: Since all processing happens in your browser, your confidential documents stay on your machine. Great for sensitive contracts or personal records.
- Offline Mode: After the initial download, you can use KovaPDF completely offline. Perfect for traveling or working in areas with poor internet.
If the application doesn't start, try refreshing your browser or clearing the cache. Make sure you're using a supported browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari). Restarting your computer can also resolve minor glitches.
For files larger than 50 MB, processing may take a few minutes. Close other applications to free up memory. If the issue persists, try compressing the file in smaller batches first.
Some browsers show a warning for downloaded applications. Click "Keep" or "Allow" to proceed. You can also right-click the download link and select "Save Link As" to bypass the warning.
KovaPDF works offline after installation. If you're online and it fails, check your connection and try again.
Your files are processed locally in your browser using JavaScript. They are never uploaded to any server. KovaPDF does not collect, store, or transmit your documents. The only communication happens when you download the initial application file.
