The short version
Many people are happy to upload a file and get a result back, and iLovePDF offers a wide catalog of tools. The trade off is that a copy of your file travels to, and is processed on, computers run by someone else. PDFeverything takes the other path: the job runs on your own device, so there is nothing to upload, nothing to wait in line for, and nothing left behind on a server afterwards.
Every PDFeverything tool is free, needs no account, and adds no watermark. Start with Merge PDF, Compress PDF, or Image to PDF.
