Frequently asked questions
Is Folio really free?+
Yes. Every tool is free to use, with no sign-up, no trial and no watermark on your pages.
Why do I get a ZIP file?+
Splitting creates several PDFs, and a ZIP keeps them together as one download.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?+
No. Folio opens and edits your PDF inside your browser. The file never leaves your device, so nothing is stored on a server and nobody else can see it.
Are edits kept when I split?+
Yes. Rotations, annotations, watermarks and page numbers are included in every part.
