PDF Utility
Merge, delete, compress PDFs offline. $15 once, no subscript
I had to merge 5 contracts last week. Adobe wanted $20/mo.
All the “free” tools made me upload sensitive docs to their servers. Hard no.
So I spent 2 weeks building PDF Utility for Windows:
- Merge multiple PDFs into one
- Delete pages: 1, 3, 5-7
- Compress to fit email limits
- Stamp DRAFT / CONFIDENTIAL / APPROVED
8MB download. 100% offline. Zero data collection. No subscription.
$15 one-time. Free updates forever.

I’m a solo dev in Arizona. This is v1.0 – it’s ugly but it works.
Roast it. What feature should I ship in v1.1?

I had to merge 5 contracts last week. Adobe wanted $20/month. Every “free” tool made me upload sensitive client docs to their servers. That’s a privacy lawsuit waiting to happen. Built PDF Utility for Windows instead:

Adobe's pricing is insane for basic stuff like this. I use free tools but always feel sketchy uploading tax docs or contracts to random sites.
Does it handle OCR or is that coming later? Would pay extra for searchable scans honestly.
First sale gets a personal thank you video + I’ll build their #1 feature request for v1.1
Who’s going to be customer #1? 👀
