Popular tools
Pick a job and choose your file. The raccoon handles the rest.
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, no analytics and no cookies. 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.

Everything the paid PDF editors charge for
Raccoon PDF Editor does the jobs people usually pay a subscription for, without asking you to sign up first.
Highlight and comment
Highlight, underline and strike through text, add sticky notes and reply to them. Comments show up in Acrobat, Preview and Edge.
Edit existing text
Click a line to rewrite it. Raccoon covers the old words and sets yours in a matching font and size.
Get signatures, like DocuSign
Add signers, drop signature, initials and date fields, and send. Each person is guided to every field, and you get a certificate of completion with an audit trail.
Build fillable forms
Add text boxes, checkboxes, radio buttons, dropdowns and signature fields that work in Acrobat, Preview and Chrome.
Certificate digital signatures
Sign with your own .p12 certificate or one made in seconds. Acrobat shows whether the file changed after it was signed.
OCR for scanned PDFs
Turn scans into searchable, selectable text in 13 languages. It runs on your device, so private scans stay private.
Replace images
Click a picture in the PDF and swap in a new one at the same size and position.
Merge, split and reorder
Combine PDFs and images, drag pages into order, rotate, duplicate, delete or extract them, and split one file into many.
Redact and protect
Black out names and numbers so the hidden text is gone for good, and lock files with AES-256 passwords.
Compress and convert
Shrink large scans, turn pages into PNG or JPG images, convert images to PDF and export all the text.
Stamps, watermarks, page numbers
Approved, Draft, Paid or your own stamp. Add watermarks, page numbers and headers in any color.
Read like an e-book
Full screen reading with swipe and tap page turns, two-page spreads, sepia and night themes, bookmarks, and a text view that reflows to your screen.
