FixMyPDF alternatives
FixMyPDF is a free, browser-based tool for compressing, converting, merging, splitting, protecting, redacting and watermarking PDFs, with files processed in the browser rather than uploaded. When choosing an alternative, weigh whether local processing matters for your files, which tasks you need (editing, signing, OCR, or batch image work), and price, since most options here are free and PDF Merge Files is paid. API and self-hosting details are not specified for these products, so check them directly if they matter.
