Things people ask before installing.
Honest answers — including where we say no. If something here doesn't answer your question, email actuallyusefulextensions@gmail.com.
Is Convert: Anything to PDF really free?
Yes. No watermarks, no file size limits, no premium tier, no account required. The extension is funded by us, not by ads or your data.
What file formats can I convert?
Images (JPG, PNG, WebP, SVG, GIF, BMP), text files (TXT, HTML, JSON, XML, Markdown), spreadsheets (CSV), and any active web page. See the full format breakdown above for scenarios and concrete use cases.
Can I convert Excel (.xlsx) spreadsheets directly?
Not directly. Export your spreadsheet to CSV first (in Excel: File → Save As → CSV; in Google Sheets: File → Download → Comma-separated values), then drop the CSV into the extension. CSVs with 6+ columns auto-detect as wide and switch to landscape orientation.
Can I merge multiple files into one PDF?
Yes. Drag in any number of files (mixed formats are fine — e.g. 3 images + 1 CSV + 1 Markdown file) and they'll be combined into a single PDF in the order you list them. There's no merge limit.
Is there a file size limit?
No. Because conversion happens entirely on your device, the only practical limit is your computer's available memory. We've tested with multi-hundred-page PDFs and large image batches without issue.
Are watermarks added to the output PDF?
No. Ever. The PDF you generate is yours, unbranded. The only marks in the output are whatever was in the source file.
Will my files be uploaded anywhere?
No. The extension makes zero network requests during file conversion — everything runs locally in your browser using bundled libraries (jsPDF for files, Chrome's DevTools Protocol for web pages). Your files never touch any server.
Does it preserve image quality?
Yes. Image conversion preserves the source resolution; PDFs are generated without quality loss. For 300 DPI scans, the output is print-ready.
Can it handle password-protected source files?
No — encrypted PDFs and password-protected source files can't currently be read. For all other formats (images, text, CSV) encryption isn't relevant. The output PDFs are not password-protected.
What paper sizes are supported?
A4, US Letter, US Legal, and Tabloid. Orientation (portrait / landscape) is selectable per conversion. CSV exports with many columns auto-switch to landscape.
Which browsers does it work on?
Any Chromium-based browser: Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, Opera, Vivaldi. Firefox and Safari are not supported because the underlying APIs differ.
How do I uninstall it?
Right-click the extension icon and choose "Remove from Chrome", or visit chrome://extensions and click Remove. The extension stores no persistent data, so there's nothing to clean up after.
Install Convert: Anything to PDF.
Free forever. No account. Two clicks. Uninstall in two more if it doesn't help.
