What iLovePDF does well

To be fair, let's start with their real strengths:

When iLovePDF may suit you better

To be clear, in these cases iLovePDF may be the better choice for you today:

  • You need an app from a store today

    They have ready-made apps for Windows, macOS, iOS and Android. Our apps for Android, iPhone and iPad, Windows and macOS are coming soon to Google Play, the App Store and as Windows and macOS downloads. Until then, you can install the site as an app from your browser.

    출처: iLovePDF: Desktop

  • Your organization requires certifications

    If your organization needs a provider with ISO/IEC 27001 certification, their security page lists it.

    출처: iLovePDF: Security

  • You work from Google Drive or Dropbox

    You can open files from them and save results back without downloading and re-uploading.

    출처: iLovePDF: FAQ

  • You need advanced e-signatures

    Their security page describes eIDAS-compliant signatures through qualified trust service providers. Our Request signatures feature is an electronic signature with an audit trail, not a certificate-based digital signature.

What we built for Arabic users

Things we built because most of our users write in Arabic and deal with official paperwork and upload portals:

  • Connected Arabic text in your output

    When you type Arabic in the edit, sign, watermark, forms and page number tools, they are built to show it with connected letters, running right to left.

    PDF 편집PDF 서명PDF 워터마크 넣기PDF 양식PDF 페이지 번호 넣기

  • Arabic-Indic or Latin digits

    Number your pages with digits like ١، ٢، ٣ or 1, 2, 3, and choose where they go.

    PDF 페이지 번호 넣기

  • 29 interface languages

    Arabic first, then English, Kurdish (Sorani), Persian, Urdu, Turkish and the other languages in the language menu, from Chinese and Japanese to Hindi and Swahili.

  • Application pack

    Photograph your documents with your phone: the photos are cleaned up, straightened and combined into one PDF in the order you choose, then we try to compress it under the size you set, such as 500 KB or 1 MB. All on your device.

    제출 서류 묶음

  • No account, no ads

    Every tool works without an account and without ads. Only two features need a free account because they save something under your name: saved workflows and signature requests.

Don't just take our word for it

We explain step by step how to confirm, in your browser's Network panel or with an airplane mode test on your phone, that tools running on your device don't send your file.

자주 묻는 질문

Is Safha part of iLovePDF?

No. Safha is made by akkadX and has no connection to iLovePDF or the company that owns it.

Is Safha really free?

Yes. All tools are free in the current version, with no ads, and almost all of them work without an account. Only saved workflows and signature requests need a free account.

Can I use both?

Of course. Pick what suits each task: for example, tools that run on your device for personal files, and their apps if you need one from an app store.

How did you check the facts about iLovePDF?

We reviewed their official pages on October 30, 2026 and linked each page next to the fact it supports. Their terms may change after that date, so always check the source.

Will my Arabic PDF convert to Word exactly?

We don't promise an exact match. The result depends on how the PDF was made, and scanned files need OCR. Always review the converted file before you use it.
