Word processors stamp your name into every PDF they export. Find it, along with reviewer names in comments, and remove it. Your PDF never leaves your device.
Useful for anonymous submissions, blind peer review, tender documents, and anything sent outside your organisation.
In the Author document property, copied from your Word, Google Docs or Pages account; in the XMP creator field; in the author of every comment, highlight and sticky note; and sometimes in the file path recorded by the creating app.
Editing the Author field in a PDF app often leaves the original in the XMP metadata or in an earlier saved version inside the file. Rebuilding the PDF, as this tool does, removes all of them at once.
Author, software, dates, XMP, comments, attachments and saved versions are listed.
A new PDF is made in this tab, leaving hidden data and history behind.
The downloaded file is inspected again so you can see nothing is left.
For client work, ID scans, medical documents, unreleased product shots, or anything else you do not want sitting in a stranger's storage, the safer upload is the one that never happens.
File processing runs in your browser. Google Analytics records page views and anonymous tool-usage events, but NoUpload does not send filenames, metadata values, file sizes, image blobs, or other file details as analytics data.
Anyone can claim files stay on your device. Here is how to confirm it yourself in under a minute, with tools already in your browser.
Or go further: load the page, switch off Wi-Fi, and use the tool. Processing still works, because it never needed a server.
What NoUpload does with files: image inspection, cleaning, resizing, and compression happen in your browser. Your files are not uploaded to NoUpload for processing.
What this site collects: standard page-view analytics plus anonymous usage events (a tool was opened, a file was added, processing started, an export completed) that record only the tool and page name. Google Analytics may record approximate location, device/browser type, and pages visited. NoUpload does not send filenames, image data, metadata values, file sizes, dimensions, or file counts.
Terms: NoUpload is provided free, as-is, with no warranty of any kind. Use it at your own risk.
