PDF Buddy

PDF Buddy is a PDF processing tool for Mac, iPhone, and iPad.

It can merge documents, crop edges, compress, remove sensitive information, number pages, stamp, and add watermarks in a single export, reducing the need to repeatedly switch tools and save files. All processing is done locally, without uploading the document, and the original file remains unchanged. The software re-encodes images while preserving text and lines, ensuring the compressed document remains clear and text is still selectable. PDF Buddy The cropping function identifies the boundaries of each page, effectively removing unnecessary margins from the exported file. For privacy information, it supports finding email addresses, bank card numbers, Social Security numbers, and faces on the device and removing sensitive content through page burning, avoiding the problem of selecting underlying text even after simply covering it with a black border. Users can also set continuously increasing Bates numbering across split files, headers and footers with date and filename variables, and text or image watermarks. PDF Buddy The result preview uses the same processing flow as the actual export, making it easy to check the cropping, layout, and overprinting effects before sending; the mobile app also provides the same task switch, supporting importing and sharing documents from files, emails, or the share menu.
