Frequently asked questions
What are the limits of Repair PDF?
A file cut off mid-transfer cannot regain the bytes it lost, and heavily corrupted files may fail outright. The repaired copy may drop broken objects.
How should I check the Repair PDF result?
Open the repaired file in two viewers and page through it. If content is missing, download the original again from its source, and keep the damaged file.
