Questions
Why did my PDF not get much smaller?
PDFs made from text (not scans) are usually small already, and Quill keeps their text sharp and selectable. The big savings come from scanned pages and photos.
Is it really free? Are there daily limits?
Yes, it is free with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily task limit. Everything runs in your browser, so it costs us nothing to give away. Quill is a free tool by Doetra.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. Your file is opened, edited and saved on your own device. Nothing is sent to a server — that is also why it is fast.
Will it work on my phone?
Yes. Quill works in modern browsers on Android and iPhone; the page fits your screen and the tools sit in a bar at the bottom.
