Organize and lightly edit a PDF before you share it
Before you share a long PDF, take out pages that should not go out, put the rest in order, fix a few lines, then add page numbers or your own watermark and protect the file.
This is about tidy pages, not shrinking email attachments or scanning paper
If the file is too large for email, start with the guide on compressing a PDF for email. If you have an image-only scan, start with the OCR workflow. Use this page when the pages are already there and you need to clean them up before sharing.
Delete extra pages, then put the rest in order
Remove pages that should not be shared. Reorder the rest, and rotate any page that is sideways or upside down, so the reader can go through the file in the right sequence.
Make small text fixes
Use Edit PDF for short corrections—a typo, a date, a line that should not go out. This is for light edits, not for rewriting a long document from scratch.
Add page numbers or a watermark you own
Page numbers help in a long packet. If you want a mark on the pages, add a watermark you own to a file that belongs to you. If you previously added your own watermark and need it off this copy, you can remove that mark from the same file. Do not use TidePDF to strip a watermark placed by someone else.
Compress and protect before you share
When the pages look right, compress the file so it is easier to send, and protect it with a password if it is confidential.
What happens to your file
These tools run in the browser; you do not need a separate app. Files are deleted after use: if processing never starts, they are removed after about 60 minutes; after the first view, after about 60 minutes; and in any case within about 24 hours. The privacy policy has the full detail.
Common questions
Do I need to install an app?
No. Organizing, editing, and protecting the PDF all run in the browser on a phone or a computer.
Can I remove a watermark before I share the file?
Only if it is a watermark you added yourself, on a file you own or are authorized to change. Do not remove a mark placed by someone else.
Is there a daily free allowance?
Basic tools include a daily free allowance of 10 uses, which resets each day. That is not unlimited use. See the pricing page if you need more.
How long do you keep my file?
Unprocessed files are removed after about 60 minutes. After the first view, they are removed after about 60 minutes, with a hard limit of about 24 hours.
