Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about file processing, downloads, privacy, and supported formats.
Are the tools free?
Yes. The tools included in this version have no per-use charge. File size and page limits protect your browser from running out of memory.
Where are my files processed?
Files and text are processed on your device. The application does not upload them to a processing server. The website itself is delivered by its hosting provider.
Which Excel formats work?
Use XLSX or CSV for spreadsheet tools, and JSON for JSON import. Legacy XLS, macro-enabled XLSM, and encrypted workbooks are not supported. Formula cells use their saved results and are not recalculated.
Why is a converted file larger?
Changing format does not always reduce size. PNG is lossless and can be much larger than JPEG. PDF structure optimization may not shrink an already optimized document. Try a suitable output format and quality.
Can I edit a password-protected PDF?
Use Unlock PDF with the correct password before most editing tools. Some permissions require the owner password. Password guessing and recovery are not provided.
Does OCR support every language?
The included OCR model recognizes English. Printed, clear, straight pages work best. Handwriting, other scripts, poor scans, and complex layouts can produce errors.
Why does a download not start?
Wait until the result is ready, then press its download button. Check your browser's downloads panel and permissions. On mobile, use the browser's save or share controls if prompted. Keep the page open until the file is saved.
Will history restore my files?
No. History stores only tool activity. It cannot restore inputs or results. Download your output before closing or reloading the page.
Can I use these tools on a phone?
Yes. The layout adapts to smaller screens. Large workbooks, OCR, HEIC decoding, and long PDFs may need more memory than a phone can provide.
How do Popular and Favorites work?
Popular shows a curated set of tools, not a live traffic ranking. Favorites are saved only in this browser. Choose either filter and combine it with a category or search term; select the active filter again to turn it off.
Do workflows move files between tools automatically?
No. Each workflow is a sequence of separate tools. Download the result from one step, open the next tool, and select that downloaded file. Keep the originals until you have reviewed the final result.
How do I reset a tool safely?
Use Reset tool and confirm Reset now to clear the current workspace. Download or copy any result first. Reset also clears scenario snapshots for that tool; it does not delete files from your device.
What does Focus mode do?
Focus mode expands the current workspace. Choose Exit focus or press Escape to return. Ctrl+Enter on Windows or Command+Enter on macOS runs tools that have a processing button; live calculators update as you type.
Can I save my tool settings?
Supported workspaces offer Save settings and Restore settings. They store selected processing options in your browser. Text contents and passwords are excluded. Private browsing or clearing site data can remove saved settings and favorites.
Does sorting the preview change my downloaded spreadsheet?
No. Preview search, sorting and pagination are for inspection only. Use a sorting, filtering or cleaning tool and process the data again to change the exported file.
Why are formulas or formatting missing from an Excel export?
Many spreadsheet utilities export values rather than the original styles, charts or workbook features. Formula cells use cached values saved by Excel; formulas are not recalculated here. Save and recalculate the source workbook in your spreadsheet application first.
Why do product codes lose their leading zeros?
Store product codes as text in the source workbook. If a numeric cell only displays leading zeros through formatting, its underlying value has already lost them. When importing CSV into Excel, choose Text for identifier columns.
What happens if a batch contains an invalid file?
Batch processing reports each file separately. Review failed items and download the successful outputs when offered. Output and input limits still apply; a supported extension alone does not mean a file is valid.
How can I stop a long operation?
Use Cancel wherever provided. Some PDF and image operations still run on the main browser thread and may delay the interface. Start with smaller files or fewer pages. Closing or reloading the tab discards unsaved results.
Why might a HEIC image be rejected?
HEIC containers vary. The tool conservatively checks file size and readable image dimensions before decoding, and not every codec variation is supported. Try exporting JPEG from the original photo application. Keep the HEIC original for metadata and other frames.
Are calculator results financial advice?
No. Results use the values and assumptions you enter. SIP growth is an estimate, not a promised return. Loan estimates may exclude fees and lender rounding. Check the tool's limitations and independently verify important decisions.
What does Copy result copy?
Copy visible result copies available text or the current table preview page to the clipboard. It does not copy binary files such as PDFs or images. Download those files using the result's download button. Your browser may require clipboard permission.
What should I include when reporting a problem?
Use Contact with the tool name, browser, steps to reproduce, file type and approximate size, and the message shown. Do not include passwords, confidential file contents or sensitive personal information. A small anonymized example is more useful than a private document.
