Airpic PDF, your PDF editor, free and cloud-free

Merge, split, reorder, sign with a certificate, recognise text (OCR), compress and export to Word. Everything runs on your computer: no document ever leaves it.

The installers are not yet signed with a developer certificate, so macOS and Windows show a warning the first time. That is expected: below we explain how to open it and how to check the file is the one we published.

More PDF tools

Merge PDF

Join contracts, invoices or scans into a single document. Everything happens on your computer: no size limits and no waiting for uploads.

→

Split PDF

Pull a chapter, an invoice or a single page out of a long PDF and save it as a separate document.

→

Organize pages

Straighten a crooked scan, put pages in the right place or remove the ones you don’t need. With up to eight undo steps.

→

Compress PDF

Choose between light compression, which only optimises the structure, and strong compression, which lowers the resolution of the images inside. You see the size before and after.

→

OCR PDF

A scanned PDF is just a picture. Airpic PDF recognises the text and places it as an invisible layer over each page: the document looks the same, but now you can search and copy it.

→

Sign PDF

Sign contracts and forms without printing. Draw the signature on the trackpad, or scan a QR code and draw it with your finger on your phone: it appears on the computer ready to place.

→

Digital signature with certificate

A verifiable cryptographic signature, the green tick in Adobe Reader, with your certificate from any certification authority. Optional visible seal and a side note on every page.

→

PDF to Word

Recover the text, tables and images of a PDF as a .docx to edit in Word, LibreOffice or Google Docs. Works with text PDFs; scans need OCR first.

→

JPG to PDF

Gather the photos of a document, the month’s receipts or your screenshots into a single PDF, one image per page at full resolution.

→

PDF to images

Turn presentations, plans or invoices into images to drop into an email, a website or a slide deck.

→

Protect PDF

Encrypt payslips, contracts or medical reports before sending them. 256-bit AES encryption, the standard supported by PDF readers.

→

Watermark

“Draft”, “Confidential”, your company’s name or the recipient’s: a diagonal text that is visible but does not get in the way of reading.

→

Page numbers

Paginate a dossier, a report or a file merged from several documents, without going through Word.

→

Fill in forms

Applications, official forms and company paperwork with interactive fields. If the PDF has no fields, write on top with «Texto» (Text).

How to install

Mac

  1. Open the .dmg file and drag Airpic PDF to the Applications folder.
  2. The first time, macOS will say it cannot verify the developer: go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to the notice and click “Open Anyway”.
  3. From then on it opens with a double click, and via “Open With” on any PDF.
  4. Do not turn off SmartScreen or Gatekeeper: the exception for this one file is enough.
This is the macOS warning. In System Settings → Privacy & Security click “Open Anyway” (only once).
This is the macOS warning. In System Settings → Privacy & Security click “Open Anyway” (only once).

Windows

  1. Run the installer. No administrator rights needed.
  2. If SmartScreen shows “Windows protected your PC”, click “More info” and then “Run anyway”.
  3. If Microsoft Edge WebView2 is missing (it ships with Windows 11), the installer downloads it.
  4. Some company policies block unsigned installers; in that case you will need your administrator.
  5. Do not turn off SmartScreen or Gatekeeper: the exception for this one file is enough.
This is Windows SmartScreen: click “More info”, then “Run anyway”.

Verify your download

The installers are not developer-signed yet (hence the warnings). You can check each file’s SHA-256 fingerprint:

How to check it (Terminal on Mac, PowerShell on Windows):

shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/Airpic-PDF-1.2.0-mac-arm64.dmg
Get-FileHash "$env:USERPROFILE\Downloads\Airpic-PDF-1.2.0-windows-setup.exe" -Algorithm SHA256

The hash proves the file is the one we published and has not been altered; it does not replace a developer signature.

Privacy

Airpic PDF sends nothing to the internet. Only if you choose “link for another network” when signing from your phone is a temporary tunnel created for the signature page; the document never travels.

Free software by Airpic. Built with PyMuPDF, pyHanko and RapidOCR.
