Frequently Asked Questions

What is Onnax Tools?

Onnax Tools is a free platform of 120 browser-based utilities for PDFs, images, documents and file conversion. Every tool runs locally in your browser — no uploads, no accounts, no cost.

How can the tools be free?

The site is supported by advertising. Because our tools run in your browser rather than on expensive servers, our costs stay low enough that ads alone sustain the service — no premium tier needed.

Is it safe to use these tools with confidential files?

Yes — this is our core design principle. Files are processed by JavaScript on your own device and are never transmitted to us or anyone else. You can verify this in your browser's network inspector: no file data leaves the page.

Do the tools work offline?

After a page has fully loaded, most tools can run without a connection, since processing is local. A connection is needed to first load the page and its libraries.

What browsers are supported?

Current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari and Opera. A few advanced features (like extracting all GIF frames) work best in Chromium-based browsers — tools will tell you when that matters.

Is there a file size limit?

We impose none. Very large files are limited only by your device's memory. Multi-hundred-page PDFs and 50-megapixel images process fine on typical modern hardware.

Why did a tool say my browser can't do something?

Browsers have honest limits: they cannot encode certain formats (e.g. animated WebP) or decode others (e.g. RAW sensor data). When a limit applies, our tools say so plainly and do the best possible within it, rather than silently failing.

Can I suggest a new tool?

Absolutely — use the contact page. Many tools on this site exist because someone asked for them.

Do you keep any record of what I processed?

No. We cannot — the files never reach us. Even our analytics only count page visits, never file contents or names.

Can I link to or embed your tools?

Linking is welcome. Embedding our pages in iframes or reselling access is not permitted — see the Terms & Conditions.
