Private by design
Most online PDF tools upload your file to their servers. Raccoon doesn't. Medical forms, contracts, payslips and IDs stay on your device from start to finish.
No sign-up, no ads and no cookies. We only count visits anonymously to see which tools people use. Your settings and saved signatures stay in this browser, and you can erase them below.
The site tells your browser to block it from sending data to other servers. The only outside download is the text-recognition data, fetched when you use OCR.
Signature requests travel inside the PDF you send yourself, by email or chat. There is no envelope stored online for anyone to read.

Questions people ask
What is a HEIC file?
HEIC is the photo format iPhones and iPads use by default. It keeps photos small, but Windows and many websites can't open it.
Does it work on Windows?
Yes. The conversion runs in your browser, so it works in Chrome, Edge and Firefox on Windows without installing anything.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. They are converted and saved by your own browser and never leave your device.
Is it free?
Yes. Every feature is free, with no sign-up, no watermark added to your files and no limit on how many PDFs you use.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Your PDF is opened and saved inside your browser on your own device. Nothing is sent to a server, so it is safe for private and confidential documents.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Raccoon PDF Editor works in any modern browser on iPhone, Android, iPad, Windows, Mac and Chromebook.
