One-sentence description

EditFreePDF is a free, browser-based PDF editor with no sign-up, no watermarks and no file uploads — documents are processed entirely on the user's device.

Verification

The no-upload claim is independently verifiable: load the site, disconnect from the internet, and every editing tool continues to work — because processing is local.
