Hush PDF

PDF tools that keep your documents to yourself.

Merge, split, compress and edit PDFs — entirely on your own computer. Nothing is ever uploaded.


Why Hush

Your files never leave your device. Hush PDF is a Chrome extension that does all of its work locally, in your browser. It requests no access to your browsing, makes no network calls during any PDF operation, and works fully offline. No account. No subscription. No telemetry.

Frequently asked questions

Does Hush PDF upload my files?

No. Every operation — merge, split, edit, OCR, redaction, compression, password protection — runs inside the Chrome extension on your device. The only network call is the optional ExtensionPay purchase/restore, which never carries your files.

Is Hush PDF free?

Yes. Merge, split, images to PDF, page reorder, hidden-data cleaning and opening protected PDFs are free with no limits. Pro tools (editor, signature, forms, OCR, redaction, compression, password protection, table export) are a one-time purchase — no subscription.

Can Hush PDF redact a PDF permanently?

Yes. Redacted pages are rasterized and rebuilt, so the text under a black box is removed from the file, not just covered. Hush verifies this before saving.

Does OCR work offline?

Yes. The OCR engine (Tesseract, English and Turkish) is bundled inside the extension. Scanned pages become searchable without leaving your computer.

Can I remove metadata and hidden data from a PDF?

Yes. Hush shows the author, dates, XMP, attachments and scripts a PDF carries and removes them in one click, with a before/after report.

Can Hush PDF convert PDF to Word or Excel?

Partially. It extracts detected tables to CSV/XLSX and plain text to .txt/.docx. Page layout is not preserved; it is not a full PDF-to-Word converter.

What permissions does the extension need?

Only "storage", used for the local Pro status. No host permissions, no downloads permission, no telemetry.

Which browsers are supported?

Google Chrome (Manifest V3). Chromium-based browsers that install Chrome extensions generally work, but only Chrome is tested.
