Answers to the questions people ask most.
Where are my documents stored?
In this browser's IndexedDB. Nothing is uploaded for local tools. Sending an agreement for remote signature uploads that document. Clearing site data removes local files.
Can I use Paper Handler offline?
The installed app shell and local PDF tools can work offline after their assets are cached. OCR downloads language data on first use; remote signing, email delivery and public link access need a connection.
Do ads delay my work or downloads?
No. Downloads are never gated. Any configured result video appears only after the operation completes and can be dismissed. This build uses local house-ad placeholders and has no third-party ad network enabled.
I forgot the password on a protected PDF. Can you recover it?
No. Paper Handler never stores your password, by design. A forgotten password means a lost file.
How do signing links work?
Remote signing is not enabled in this deployment. You can still add a signature locally in the viewer and save the PDF on this device. If the owner enables remote signing in a future release, the privacy and terms pages will be updated before use.
Does Paper Handler edit PDF text?
No. Paper Handler annotates, fills, signs, organizes and protects. It does not reflow existing PDF text.
