FAQ

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. Everything happens inside your own browser using JavaScript. Your files are never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone — you can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads.

Is it really free?

Yes. Chinvar Tools is free to use with no sign-up and no watermark. The site may show ads to stay free.

Why can't I select text after compressing?

To shrink the file, each page is saved as a compressed image. If you need selectable text, keep the original or use Light compression and keep both copies.

How do I make a PDF small enough for WhatsApp or a government portal?

Use Strong compression. Scanned documents usually shrink by 60–90%. If a portal needs a size like 200 KB, try Strong and check the result size shown.
