About PDF Viewer

This is a simple PDF viewer that opens in your browser. Choose a file and read it straight away: scroll through pages, zoom in and out, and search the text. Nothing is uploaded, so it is a safe way to look at a sensitive document on a shared or locked-down computer without installing an app. Your file never leaves your device: the work happens in your browser, with no upload and no account. It works on desktop and mobile browsers and is free to use.

How to view a PDF online

  1. Open a PDF from your device or drag it onto the page.
  2. Scroll, zoom and search the document.
  3. Close the tab when you are done; nothing is stored.
