FAQ
PDF to Grayscale (B&W) — frequently asked questions
Why convert a PDF to grayscale?
Black-and-white pages print faster and use less coloured ink, and they often make the file lighter to share.
Will the text stay selectable?
No. Each page is converted to a grayscale image at print quality, so the text becomes part of the picture. Keep your original if you need selectable text.
Are my files uploaded or stored anywhere?
No. PDF to Grayscale (B&W) runs in your browser, so your files stay on your device and are never sent to our servers or saved anywhere.
Is PDF to Grayscale (B&W) really free? Do I need to sign up?
Yes, it is completely free. There is no account, signup, watermark or email to hand over; open the page and use it as often as you like.
