Bullet PDF

No upload · no account · no watermark

A PDF editor that doesn't upload your files

Most online PDF tools send your document to a server, process it there and keep it for a while. Bullet PDF is different by design: it is a set of static files that run in your browser. Your PDF is opened, edited and saved on your own device and is never sent anywhere. It even keeps working with the internet off.

How the privacy works

  1. The app loads once

    Your browser downloads Bullet PDF's files — HTML, CSS, JavaScript, fonts — from a static host. That is the only thing that ever travels over the network.

  2. Your PDF stays in the browser

    When you open a document it is read into your browser's memory. Rendering, editing, signing and saving are done by pdf.js and pdf-lib running locally. The security policy of the site forbids connections to any other server.

  3. You download the result

    The finished PDF is written by your browser and saved wherever you choose. Recent documents and signatures are kept in this browser's own storage on your device, and you can remove them any time.

Questions about this tool

How can I be sure my PDF isn't uploaded?

Three ways. Open the browser's developer tools on the Network tab while you edit: no requests appear. Turn off your internet after the page loads: everything still works. And the site's Content Security Policy, which the browser enforces, only allows connections to the site's own static files.

Does Bullet PDF work offline?

Yes. After the first visit the app's files are kept by your browser, so it opens and works with no connection. Install it from the browser's menu (or Share → Add to Home Screen on iPhone and iPad) to get an icon.

Is anything stored anywhere?

Only on your device: recent documents (so you can reopen them), your saved signatures and your settings, in this browser's storage. Remove documents from the start screen, delete signatures in the Signatures manager, or clear the site's data in your browser to remove everything.

Is it safe for confidential or legal documents?

The document never leaves your computer, which removes the main risk of online tools. As with any software, your own device and browser still need to be secure.

Why is it free? What is the catch?

Bullet PDF is a static site with no servers to pay for per document, no accounts to manage and no documents to monetise. There is no premium tier, no watermark and no upsell.

Can I use it at work or for client files?

Yes. Because nothing is transmitted or stored elsewhere, there is no third-party processor to add to your data-handling agreements. Check your own organisation's policy on browser-based tools.

Ready?

It opens in a second. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.
