Unlock PDF FAQ
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. The file is processed in your browser and is not uploaded to SODERMAN.
Will every PDF feature be preserved?
Page-level changes aim to preserve ordinary content. Forms, links, annotations, bookmarks, layers, attachments, accessibility tags and existing digital signatures can be affected, so review important output before relying on it.
What happens after I leave?
The in-memory document and temporary browser URLs are released when the page closes. A refresh clears the local editor state.
Need professional video production?
SODERMAN creates commercials, films and audiovisual content.
