About this tool

Scanned documents and PDFs full of photos are often far bigger than they need to be. FilePrivy re-renders each page at a sensible resolution, which usually cuts the size by 50–90%. If the result would be larger, you keep the original.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded?

No. FilePrivy processes everything inside your browser. Your files never leave your device, and the tool even works offline once the page has loaded.

Is it free?

Yes. Every tool is free with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit.

Will I still be able to select text?

No. Pages are saved as images, so text is no longer selectable. This works best for scans and photo-heavy PDFs.
