Remove Annotations — frequently asked questions

Does this remove form fields too?+

Yes — form fields are annotations, so a fillable form is flattened to a plain page. Use Flatten PDF if you want to keep the filled-in values baked on.

Does it remove redactions?+

Proper redactions from Redact PDF are flattened into the page and stay. This only removes live annotation objects.

Do you upload my files to a server?+

No — every tool here processes your files entirely on your device, and nothing is uploaded to a server. The AI tools that used to send extracted text to a server are currently disabled.

Is there a file size limit?+

There's no artificial limit we impose, but since processing happens in your browser, very large files (500+ MB or 1,000+ pages) are limited by your device's memory rather than by us.
