What it does

Local, fast, and yours.

Every task happens on your computer — open, annotate, sign, OCR, search, organize, and redact. Your original PDF is never altered, and nothing is ever uploaded.

01

Offline OCR

Recognize text on a single page, a range, or the whole document with on-device Tesseract — review by page, locate words, and export to a .txt file.

02

True redaction

Mark sensitive content, then export an image-only PDF that physically removes what's underneath — not a box you can drag away later.

03

Multi-tab editing

One tab per open PDF, each with its own page, zoom, rotation, annotations, and OCR. Drag in several files and work across them at once.

Built to keep your documents local.

PDF-Daisy is a desktop tool, not a web service pretending to be one. Contracts, medical records, and financials stay on your machine from open to export.

  • No account, no cloud, no telemetry, no tracking
  • Non-destructive sidecar save keeps your original untouched
  • Reopening restores your annotation and OCR layers
// pdf-daisy.toolkit

One app for the everyday PDF work.

Designed to replace the pile of subscription apps and online converters most people scatter their PDF tasks across — in a single clean desktop workflow.

  • Annotate, highlight, note, and stamp saved signatures
  • Reorder, delete, rotate, extract, and merge pages
  • Export pages and embedded images, or import a folder as a PDF

Private by design. Free to use.

Join the people doing real PDF work on their own machine — no account, no cloud, no uploads.
