Adobe Acrobat online alternative — private, no install
Adobe Acrobat is the reference PDF app, and its online tools work through Adobe's cloud. Lockpage is a lighter option for everyday PDF work that runs in the browser: open the page, drop a file, done — the document stays on your device.
| Adobe Acrobat online | Lockpage | |
|---|---|---|
| Where your file is processed | On Adobe's servers (the file is uploaded) | In your browser — the file never leaves your device |
| Works offline after the page loads | Nein | Yes, for local tools |
| Account required to start | Often for advanced tools | No — 2 free documents a day without sign-up |
| Signature requests by link | Varies by plan | Yes, end-to-end encrypted link |
| OCR, compare, Bates numbering, PDF/A | Partly, varies by plan | Yes (Pro) |
| AI summary, chat, translation | Varies | Yes — only extracted text is sent, never the PDF |
| Interface languages | Many | English, Español, Français, Deutsch, Русский |
