flarePDF - Free online PDF editor: edit, merge, sign, no uploads

flarePDF is a free online PDF editor that runs entirely in your browser. Edit PDF text with original fonts, merge, split, compress, sign, crop, organize, convert PDF to JPG, extract text, and scan to PDF with OCR. Unlike Smallpdf, iLovePDF or Adobe Acrobat online, files never leave your device: no uploads, no sign-up, no watermark, no page limits. A private, no-download Adobe Acrobat alternative.

Hi Product Hunt! I built flarePDF because most free PDF editors upload your private documents to a remote server, stamp a watermark on the export, or lock basic tools behind a subscription.

flarePDF runs fully in your browser (client-side), so your files never leave your device. What you get:

Edit PDF text and keep the original fonts
Merge, split, organize, crop and compress PDFs
Sign PDF documents (draw or type)
Scan to PDF with OCR, plus PDF to JPG and JPG to PDF
No sign-up, no watermark, no page limits

I'd love your feedback, especially on editing text in font-heavy or scanned PDFs. What PDF task do you still find painful?
