Repair PDF

For files that refuse to open — a damaged cross-reference table is the most common cause. The document structure is rebuilt from the objects still present in the file. Truncated files (missing content) cannot be conjured back.

This tool runs entirely in your browser — the file is never uploaded. You can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
