Repair PDF

A client-side PDF repair utility. It attempts to fix common structure errors and produce an openable PDF. Use Quick mode to rebuild structure (preserves vectors/text when possible), or Aggressive mode to rasterize pages for robust repair.

Repair mode

Quick tries to reparse and reserialize the PDF (faster, preserves vectors/text). Aggressive renders pages to images and rebuilds the file (more likely to open severely damaged PDFs but converts pages to images).

Strip metadata

Removing document metadata can sometimes help with malformed metadata blocks.
