Requirements and recommendations

How to review PDF privacy

  • Choose one PDF within the browser safety limits.
  • Review every supported finding and its confidence label.
  • Use a relevant existing tool only when a disclosed issue needs action.
How OpenFileTools processes it

Local processing, explicit choices.

The browser parses known PDF dictionaries and name trees read-only, reports only supported structural evidence, and leaves the original unchanged.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Is this a forensic privacy audit?

No. It is a transparent review of supported structures and cannot guarantee discovery of every artifact.

Does it run PDF scripts or open links?

No. It only identifies structural markers; actions, links, and scripts are not executed.

Does it change my PDF?

No. The privacy checker is read-only.
