About PDF Viewer
A fast PDF reader that runs in your browser. Pages render sharply at any zoom and only near the view, so large documents open quickly. Search finds every match across the document and highlights it on the page, text can be selected and copied, and the pages panel and the document's contents (bookmarks) let you jump anywhere. Fit to width or to the page, rotate, print, read in full screen, and switch to sepia or dark mode for night reading. One click opens the same file in the editor.

Frequently asked questions
How do I open a PDF online without installing anything?+
Drop the PDF here and it opens in the page right away, in any modern browser on a computer, tablet or phone. There is nothing to install and no account.
Is there a dark mode for reading PDFs at night?+
Yes. The reading mode button switches between light, sepia and dark. Dark mode inverts the page colors so white pages turn dark and text turns light, easier on the eyes at night.
Can I search and copy text?+
Yes. Use the search button (or Ctrl+F) to find every match with highlights, and select text on the page to copy it. Scanned pages need OCR PDF first.
Is my PDF uploaded?+
No. The viewer runs entirely in your browser, so private documents stay on your device.
Can I edit the PDF after viewing it?+
Click Edit this PDF and it opens in the editor, where you can change text, sign, add images and more.
