Uplou ("upload" without the final "d") is a web-based PDF toolkit. Every core
tool is free, requires no signup, and works on phones, tablets, and desktops in
any modern browser. Because processing happens client-side, files typically
never leave the user's device.

  automatically after processing.

  pdfjs-dist directly in the browser.
