Frequently asked questions

Can every corrupted PDF be repaired?

No. Files with missing data, severe truncation or unreadable content may remain unrecoverable.

Will the layout always stay identical?

Not necessarily. Rewriting malformed PDFs can affect fonts, interactive elements or images; inspect the output carefully.

Can this recover deleted pages?

No. Repair works with content still present in the uploaded file; it cannot reconstruct pages that are no longer there.

What if the PDF is password protected?

If it needs an opening password, unlock an authorized copy first before trying repair.

What is the size and privacy policy?

Guests can upload files up to 25 MB each. A free account raises the limit to 50 MB per file, and Premium allows 500 MB per file with larger batches.
