PDF Candy

PDF Candy is a comprehensive online PDF editing and conversion toolkit providing over forty tools for creating, converting, editing, splitting, merging, compressing, and protecting PDF documents through a web browser interface, enabling users to handle virtually any PDF manipulation task without installing desktop software, with all processing performed locally or through cloud servers depending on the operation. The conversion tools support transforming PDF files to and from numerous formats including Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, JPG and PNG images, HTML pages, RTF files, text files, and electronic publication formats, with each conversion preserving formatting, fonts, images, and layout structure as faithfully as possible. The editing tools include adding text and images to PDF pages, rotating and deleting pages, rearranging page order, splitting PDFs into individual pages or size-based segments, merging multiple PDFs into one, cropping page margins, extracting images from documents, and adding page numbers, headers, and watermarks. The optimization tools compress PDF file sizes through image quality reduction and font subsetting, with adjustable compression levels balancing file size reduction against visual quality preservation, and the unlock tool removes password protection from PDFs when the password is known. The creation tools convert images and documents into PDF format, create PDF from scanner input, and generate PDF from text. The web tools include PDF to ePub conversion for e-readers. The batch processing enables converting multiple files simultaneously. The Windows desktop application provides offline access to all tools. Designed for office workers, students, professionals, and anyone working with PDF documents.
