How it works

Three steps. No upload, no signup.

  1. 1

    Drop your file

    Click the dropzone above or drag a Pages from your desktop. Files of any size, there's no upload, so there's no upload limit.

  2. 2

    Convert in your browser

    The conversion runs entirely in this tab using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file never touches our servers, we don't have any.

  3. 3

    Download

    Get your PDF the moment the conversion finishes. Convert another, or close the tab.

Files stay on your device

Your file is never uploaded. The entire conversion runs in your browser using WebAssembly. We can't see what you convert because we have no server to see it.

No file size limit

Server converters cap free users at 1-2 GB and gate larger files behind a paid plan. Since nothing uploads, our limit is whatever your browser can handle.

Free, no signup, no ads on conversions

No account required. No watermark on the output. No queue. Open source, every line of conversion code is public.

Formats involved

About Pages and PDF

Pages, Apple Pages document

Pages is Apple's word processor (the macOS/iOS counterpart to Word). Files are zip-packaged with proprietary iWork XML inside, not OOXML, not openable outside Apple's ecosystem without conversion. macOS/iOS Quick Look shows a thumbnail; reading the actual content on Windows/Linux requires either iCloud Pages (web) or converting to PDF/DOCX first.

How to open

Pages on macOS/iOS (free with any Apple device since 2013). iCloud.com Pages on any browser. Convert to PDF or DOCX for Windows/Linux compatibility.

PDF, Portable Document Format

PDF is the universal document format for fixed-layout content, invoices, contracts, scanned documents, e-books, forms. Created by Adobe in 1993 and made an open ISO standard in 2008, PDF preserves exact layout, fonts, and images across every device. Files can be searchable text, scanned images, or both. Most modern PDFs include a text layer that copy/paste and search work against.

How to open

Every modern browser opens PDFs natively. Acrobat Reader is free; macOS Preview, Windows Edge, and ChromeOS all open PDFs without extra software. For editing, Adobe Acrobat Pro or open-source PDFsam are common.

FAQ

Common questions

Is this Apple Pages → PDF converter really free?

Yes. No signup, no watermark, no daily file count limit. The entire engine is open source, you can read the conversion code on GitHub.

Where does my file go when I convert it?

Nowhere. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file is never uploaded to our servers. We don't have any servers handling files, there's nothing for us to log, store, or accidentally leak.

What's the maximum file size?

Whatever your browser can hold in memory. Practically, this means a few hundred MB on most computers, significantly larger than the 1-2 GB caps that server-upload converters charge for. Very large files (multi-GB) may require closing other browser tabs first.

Why convert Pages to PDF?

Word processing on Mac/iPad/iPhone. Documents that need to look identical on every device. The most common reason to convert is compatibility, PDF works in places where Pages doesn't, or vice versa.

How do I open a Pages file in the first place?

Pages on macOS/iOS (free with any Apple device since 2013). iCloud.com Pages on any browser. Convert to PDF or DOCX for Windows/Linux compatibility.

Does this work offline?

Once the page is loaded, the conversion itself runs entirely offline. The first time you use a tool, your browser downloads the conversion library (a one-time cache). If you reload while offline, the page won't load, but you can install the site as a Progressive Web App for full offline use.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Single file at a time for now. Batch conversion is on the roadmap, for now, drop one file, download the result, then convert the next.
