Converting PDF files online using web-based tools does carry some risks, but there are ways to do it safely:

  • Use reputable services – Stick to well-known, trustworthy sites like Adobe, Smallpdf, iBoysoft when converting PDFs online. Avoid sketchy unknown sites.
  • No sensitive data – Avoid converting PDFs with private, sensitive information using online tools. The data may go through third party servers.
  • Remove metadata first – Delete metadata like author name from the PDF if you need to convert online, in case the tool stores it.
  • Download and delete – Download converted files quickly, then delete the PDFs from the conversion tool site to minimize retention.
  • Virus scan – Scan downloaded converted files with antivirus software before use.
  • Check permissions – Use tools that don't claim broad rights to reuse your uploaded PDFs.
  • Use encryption – Enable PDF password protection before uploading for conversion if permitted.
  • Consider local software – For sensitive docs, a desktop PDF converter that doesn't upload data may be preferable.
