About

The Apache PDFBox® library is an open-source Java tool for working with PDF documents. This project allows the creation of new PDF documents, manipulation of existing documents and the ability to extract content from documents. Apache PDFBox also includes several command-line utilities. Apache PDFBox is published under the Apache License v2.0. Extract Unicode text from PDF files. Split a single PDF into many files or merge multiple PDF files. Extract data from PDF forms or fill a PDF form. Validate PDF files against the PDF/A-1b standard. Print a PDF file using the standard Java printing API. Create a PDF from scratch, with embedded fonts and images. Save PDFs as image files, such as PNG or JPEG and digitally sign PDF files. See also the export control information related to the encryption features included in Apache PDFBox.

About

SwiftPDFLab is a free, privacy-first online PDF toolkit with 100+ tools. PDF files and document contents are processed locally in your browser — the document is not uploaded to a document-processing server. Merge, split, compress, sign, redact, annotate, OCR, encrypt, create fillable forms, convert to and from Word, Excel and images, and manage PDF pages. No account is required for core workflows. SwiftPDFLab Editor can also change supported existing PDF text directly — replace words, adjust font size, and apply Bold or Italic where the PDF contains a compatible genuine font face. It changes supported existing text rather than covering it with a white-box overlay, and unsafe edits are refused instead of guessed. Website analytics may run separately for site usage and performance.
