Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about this tool, accuracy, formulas, and privacy.
Is this PDF editor truly 100% free with all features?
Yes! While tools like pdfFiller and Adobe Acrobat charge $8 to $40 per month to edit, whiteout, or sign documents, 99tools provides all editing, form-filling, and eSignature capabilities completely free.
Are my private legal and financial documents stored on your servers?
No. 99tools enforces a strict Zero Data Retention policy. All standard editing and signing operations execute 100% client-side inside your browser memory (WASM). Your files are never stored, indexed, or mined on remote disks.
When is user registration required?
Guest access provides free editing for standard daily documents (< 15MB and < 15 pages). For heavy files, batch multi-file operations, or programmatic AI Agent REST API access, creating a free 99tools account unlocks high-capacity memory without any credit card.
