No. BentoPDF works on the file in your browser, and the file never leaves your device. The box only serves the page. Where do I find the finished file? In your browser's downloads folder. BentoPDF keeps nothing, so there is no copy of it on the box either. Do I need an account? No, BentoPDF has no accounts. Anyone who knows the address can use it, but the files always stay with them. Does it work on a phone? Yes, open bentopdf.tester4.test in the phone's browser. With big files a computer is faster, because the work runs on your device. Why is a tool slow the first time? Some tools download a processing part from the internet the first time you use them. After that they start faster. Documentation Official documentation ↗
