Does FixTools upload my PDF to a server for conversion?

No. The PDF to Word conversion is entirely client-side. Your file loads into your browser memory and is processed there by JavaScript. It never leaves your device.

How do I verify my PDF was not uploaded?

Open your browser's Developer Tools (F12 in Chrome/Firefox), go to the Network tab, and watch for file upload requests while converting. You will see none — confirming the process is local.

Can I convert confidential documents safely in the browser?

Yes. Because no data is transmitted to FixTools servers, converting confidential PDFs — contracts, financial documents, health records — carries no network transmission risk. Files stay entirely on your device.

Does in-browser conversion work as well as server-side tools?

For most documents, yes. The JavaScript libraries used achieve results comparable to server-side converters. Very complex or specially structured PDFs may convert slightly differently, but the difference is minor for everyday documents.

Does conversion work without internet after the page loads?

Once the FixTools page and its JavaScript are loaded in your browser, conversion does not require an active internet connection. This is useful if you're working on an airplane or in an area with limited connectivity.
