Your PDFs never leave your PC.

We make small PDF tools for Windows, from Okinawa, Japan. Sort and print, mark up and redact, check before you send. Nothing you open is ever uploaded. All three are on the Microsoft Store.

Apps

Three tools, three jobs

Rather than one app that tries to do everything, each tool takes one problem and makes it something anyone can handle.

PDF Sort & Print

Stop opening files one at a time just to print them.

Drop in as many PDFs and images (JPG/PNG) as you like, put them in order, and print the whole set in one pass. Whole folders can be dropped in too.
Order them by date added, date modified, document date, natural filename order (2 comes before 10), or by hand. One click reverses any of them.
Document date reads each photo's capture time and each PDF's creation date, so copying files never scrambles the order.
Print directly and no combined file is left behind — nothing to clean up afterwards when the documents hold personal data.
Hundreds of files sort instantly: 300 files in a few seconds.

Price: Free — every feature, today

A future version may turn batches of more than 10 files into a paid option. Up to 10 files will stay free.

PDF Markup & Redact

Mark it up. Black it out. Print it.

Highlighter, underline, boxes, text and shapes. Text can carry a shadow or an outline. Phrases you use often can be saved as templates.
Fourteen stamps and a date stamp, plus your own images — a signature or a seal — placed as stamps.
Redaction is free: white-out, black-out, mosaic, or fill with colour. Pages are flattened to images when you save, so the text underneath does not come back.
Rotate, crop, brighten photos, present full screen, delete pages, or start from a blank sheet (A4/A3/B5/Letter/Legal).
Split a single page across several sheets: split printing and poster printing.
Open files by drag and drop. New
SVG images open too, and transparent SVGs work as image stamps. New

Free: Everything except saving and printing — redaction included
Pro: One-time purchase — save as PDF, save as JPG, print, split printing

PDF Privacy Checker

Are you certain that redaction removed anything?

A black box drawn over a name often hides it only from your eyes. Copy and paste — or an AI assistant — can still read what sits underneath.
In PDFs it finds: text in the same colour as the background, transparent text, text behind images and shapes, text outside the page, microscopic text, annotations, form field values, document properties, and text left behind in earlier revisions.
In photos it finds: GPS location, capture time, camera model, author name, and the thumbnail of the unedited shot that EXIF quietly keeps.
For files you receive, it reads the editing history and signs of AI generation. It never accuses anyone — it lists the records that are actually there.
Reports carry the full body text as an appendix, with the hidden text mixed in and colour-coded so you can see exactly where it was. New
This app has no ability to alter your original file. Removing anything always produces a separate copy.

Free: Every check, and everything it found — you can see what is inside without paying
Pro: One-time purchase — save reports, create a cleaned copy, X-ray view, GPS coordinates and map, history analysis

Principles

The same three promises, in every app

Fully offline

Nothing you open is sent over the internet — not a page, not a thumbnail. Every operation finishes on your own machine. The only time an app talks to a server is when the Microsoft Store handles a purchase or confirms that you own Pro.

We never touch the original

Your file is never silently rewritten or deleted. When something has to be removed, a separate copy is created. Evidence, deliverables and records cannot be destroyed by a mis-click.

Bought once, yours

Every paid version is a one-time purchase. No subscriptions. The purchase lives on your Microsoft account, so a new PC or a clean reinstall never means paying again.

FAQ

Questions we get

Is any part of my document uploaded?

No. These are desktop applications, not web services. The contents of the files you open never leave your computer — you can disconnect from the network entirely and every feature still works. The one exception is the Microsoft Store purchase flow, which handles payment and licence checks and never sees your documents.

Do I need to create an account?

No. There is no sign-up, no login and no telemetry. If you buy a Pro version, that purchase is recorded against the Microsoft account you already use for the Store — the same as any other Store app.

Will Windows warn me when I install?

No. All three are distributed through the Microsoft Store and reach you signed by Microsoft, so you will not see the blue warning screen that appears when running a downloaded .exe.

Is there a Mac or mobile version?

Not at the moment. Windows 10 and 11 only.

Will PDF Privacy Checker find every possible way of hiding something?

No, and we would rather say so plainly. It detects the common techniques, but file formats are endlessly varied and no tool can promise to catch everything. Text that has been baked into an image — a photograph of writing — is outside its scope. Treat it as a strong last check before you send, not as a guarantee.

Who makes these?

Okinawa Software Lab, a small independent developer in Okinawa, Japan. The tools grew out of everyday office work: too many files to print one by one, and documents that had to be checked before they went out of the building.
