BUILT AROUND THE TASK

Practical tools. Clear outcomes.

No maze of settings. Each operation has a simple path from choosing files to downloading the result.

01 / KEEP CONTROL

See your file order

Review the selected documents before merging. Move files up or down, remove mistakes, and export only when the list looks right.

02 / WORK BY PAGE

Make precise changes

Extract page ranges, rotate pages, remove unwanted pages, and reorder a document without changing your source file.

03 / KNOW THE TRADE-OFF

Compression with context

Image-based compression can shrink scanned files, but it rasterizes text and vector content. Zippy explains that trade-off before export.

EVERYDAY PDF WORK

A browser-based PDF workspace for common document tasks.

Merge, split and organize PDF files

Combine multiple PDFs into one ordered document, extract selected page ranges, or reorganize an existing document by moving, rotating and removing pages. Zippy creates a new output file so your original stays unchanged.

Crop, rotate and export PDF pages

Crop page edges with a visual selection, rotate individual pages, or use the thumbnail organizer to change order and remove pages. Export selected pages as PNG images when you need page artwork outside the PDF. Raster compression can help with scanned or image-heavy documents, with a clear trade-off: text and vector content become images.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. PDF operations run in the active browser tab using files you select. Zippy does not send documents to a document-processing server.

Can I merge multiple PDFs?

Yes. Add several readable PDFs, arrange their order, and create one combined document. Your source files remain unchanged.

How does split by page rules work?

Keep a custom range, extract odd or even pages, export every page separately, or split a document into groups of a chosen page count. Each generated PDF is available as its own download.

How do I crop a page?

Open Crop & Rotate, drag a rectangle over the visible page preview, and apply the crop to the current page or all pages. Cropping changes the visible page area; it is not secure redaction and does not erase hidden content.

Can I rotate only one page?

Yes. Navigate to that page, rotate it left or right, and export the updated PDF. Other pages keep their existing rotation unless you change them too.

Can I rearrange pages visually?

Use Rearrange Pages to review thumbnails, move pages earlier or later, remove pages, and save the new order. The original PDF is not overwritten.

Will compression preserve selectable text?

The available compression mode rasterizes each page to an optimized JPEG image. This can reduce some scans and image-heavy files, but text, links and vector artwork become part of the image and are no longer selectable.

Will compression always make a smaller PDF?

No. Savings depend on the original PDF, resolution and selected quality profile. Some documents may become larger, and Zippy reports the actual resulting size.

Can I export pages as PNG?

Yes. Choose page numbers or ranges and export each selected page as an individual PNG image, rendered in your browser.

Does Zippy modify my original file?

No. Zippy reads the file you select and creates a separate output. It does not overwrite the source file on your device.

What if a PDF is password-protected or damaged?

Protected or unreadable PDFs are reported before the affected operation proceeds. Zippy does not try to bypass password protection.

Can I use Zippy on mobile?

The interface adapts to narrow screens, including touch controls for moving between pages. Large or complex PDFs may still be limited by available browser memory and device performance.
