Turn photos of documents into one PDF

1. Open JPG to PDF Converter and add the photos or scans.
2. Use the arrows to put the pages in order.
3. Choose A4, Auto orientation and Small file if the portal has a size limit.
4. Click Create PDF and check the preview.

Compress a PDF to 100 KB, 200 KB or 500 KB

1. Open Compress PDF to KB.
2. Choose Target size and type the limit in KB.
3. For long or colourful scans, turn on Grayscale. It makes scans noticeably smaller.
4. Click Compress PDF and read the preview before you upload. Target size turns pages into images, so text is no longer selectable. Choose Lossless if you need selectable text.

Merge certificates into one PDF

1. Open Merge PDF and add the files.
2. Set the order with the arrows. Click the eye icon to check a file.
3. If a file shows Protected, click Unlock and type its password.
4. Click Merge. If the result is over the limit, use Continue with → Compress PDF.

Remove the password from a bank statement or e-Aadhaar

1. Open Remove PDF Password and choose the file.
2. Type the password you normally use to open it. For e-Aadhaar this is the first four letters of your name in capitals followed by your year of birth (for example RAHU1990).
3. Click Remove password and download the unlocked copy.

The text, links and quality stay the same, because ANURUP removes the encryption instead of re-printing the pages. PDFs that only block printing or copying unlock without a password. ANURUP cannot unlock a file if you don't know its password.

Extract a few pages

1. Open Split PDF.
2. Click the page thumbnails you want (Shift+click selects a run), or type a range like 1-3, 5.
3. Click Extract.

To split a whole file into single pages or equal parts, pick Every page separately or Every N pages.

Fix the page order or a sideways page

Open Organize PDF Pages. Drag thumbnails to reorder, use the rotate buttons on a page, and click the bin icon to drop it. Nothing changes in the file until you click Save.

Sign a PDF form and add the date

1. Clean your signature first with the Signature Cleaner, using a transparent background.
2. Open Sign & Fill PDF and choose the form.
3. Go to the right page, click Upload image (or From workspace) and drag the signature into place. Resize it from the corner.
4. Type your name or place in the text box, or click Add today's date.
5. Click Save signed PDF.

This places an image of your signature on the page. It is not a certificate-based digital signature.

Add page numbers

Open Add Page Numbers & Watermark, choose a position and format such as Page 1 of 9, and click Apply to all pages. Turn on Don't number the first page for a cover sheet.
