Questions & answers
Using the tools
Is GrovePDF free?
Yes. Every tool is free with no daily limit and no watermark. Donations are optional and go to the tree-planting charity you choose.
Are these PDF tools free for students?
Yes. Students and teachers can merge assignments, compress files to meet upload limits, convert PDF to Word to edit notes, and split or sign PDFs — all free, with no account and no watermark. Files are processed in your browser, so school work stays on your device.
Do I need an account?
No. Open a tool and use it.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Tap Choose file to pick from your files or camera roll.
Can I use GrovePDF in my language?
Yes. Choose your language from the menu at the top of the page. GrovePDF is available in nearly 110 languages.
Privacy & security
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Every tool runs inside your browser, so your files stay on your device.
Do you keep copies of my files?
We never receive them, so there is nothing to keep. Closing the tab clears them from memory.
File limits & formats
What's the maximum file size?
Each tool shows its limit under the upload area, from 30 MB to 100 MB. Very large files may be slow on older phones.
Which image formats work?
JPG, PNG and WEBP.
Which Office files work?
Word, PowerPoint and Excel files in today's formats: .docx, .pptx and .xlsx. Save older .doc, .ppt and .xls files in the new format first.
Can I open password-protected PDFs?
Not yet. Remove the password in your PDF reader first.
Donations
Where does my donation go?
Directly to the tree-planting charity you choose on the Plant a tree page. You pay on its own website and GrovePDF never handles the money.
Will I get a receipt?
Yes, the charity sends it. Ask it whether your gift is tax-deductible where you live.
Does donating unlock anything?
No. Every tool works the same for everyone.
