What PDFeitor is
PDFeitor is a free PDF application for macOS 12 or later and Windows 10/11 64-bit. It can merge, split, extract, reorder and rotate pages, convert JPG, PNG and HEIC images to PDF, and export PDFs to text, images or Word. Annotation, OCR, form filling, watermarks, page numbers, compression and password protection are included; protection uses 256-bit AES encryption. PDF-to-Word conversion works with text PDFs, while scanned PDFs need OCR first. Signatures can be drawn on a phone reached through a QR code or applied with a .p12 or .pfx certificate. The app runs locally and sends nothing to the internet. Phone signing uses a temporary tunnel for the signature page while the document stays local. No account is required and there are no ads. The page-organization tool provides up to eight undo steps. Installers are not yet developer-signed, but SHA-256 fingerprints are published.
