ConvertPDF is a passion project built for privacy. If something isn't working, or you have an idea to make it better, I'd love to hear from you.
Why Your Feedback Matters
At ConvertPDF, we believe that the best tools are built in collaboration with the people who use them every day. As a privacy-focused project, we don't track your behavior or collect usage data, which means we rely entirely on your direct feedback to understand what's working and what needs improvement. Whether you're a student trying to merge lecture notes, a researcher converting complex Markdown documents, or a professional looking for a secure way to protect sensitive PDF files, your experience is the only metric that truly counts for us.
Every email we receive and every GitHub issue opened provides us with invaluable insights. It helps us prioritize our roadmap, refine our user interfaces, and ensure that our tools remain accessible and efficient for everyone. We don't just see feedback as a way to fix bugs; we see it as a conversation that shapes the future of this platform. When you reach out, you're not just talking to a generic support deskâyou're talking directly to the developers who are passionate about creating a better, more private web.
Detailed Bug Reporting Guide
If you've encountered a technical glitch, we want to squash it as quickly as possible. To help us identify and fix the issue, please try to include as much detail as you can when reporting a bug. Technical issues can often be specific to a particular browser, operating system, or even a specific type of file. While we strive for universal compatibility, the complexity of PDF structures means that edge cases are always possible.
When reporting a bug, consider including the following information:
- Environment Details: Which browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) and operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS) are you using?
- Step-by-Step Reproduction: What exactly were you doing when the error occurred? For example: "I clicked the 'Merge' button after selecting three files."
- Expected vs. Actual Result: What did you expect to happen, and what happened instead? Did the page crash, or did the output file look incorrect?
- Error Messages: If there's an error message displayed on the screen or in the browser's developer console (F12), please share it with us.
- Sample Files (Optional): If the issue is specific to a certain PDF file, and that file doesn't contain sensitive data, providing it can help us debug significantly faster. If the file is private, please describe its characteristics (e.g., "it has 500 pages," "it contains high-resolution images," or "it uses a specific Asian font").
By providing this context, you save us a lot of guesswork and allow us to jump straight into the code to find a solution. We appreciate the time you take to help us maintain the high quality of ConvertPDF.
Feature Request Process
Do you have an idea for a new tool that would make your workflow smoother? Or perhaps an improvement to an existing one? We love hearing about new ways to make ConvertPDF more useful. Our goal is to build a comprehensive suite of PDF and document tools that run entirely in your browser, and your suggestions drive our innovation.
Our feature request process is simple and transparent. We look for ideas that align with our core values: privacy, speed, and ease of use. When you suggest a feature, we evaluate it based on technical feasibility (can it be done entirely on the client side?), community demand, and overall utility. If we decide to move forward with your suggestion, we'll often discuss the implementation details publicly on GitHub, where you can follow along with the progress.
Some of our most popular tools, like the QR Code Generator and the Markdown to PDF converter, started as simple suggestions from users just like you. No idea is too big or too small. Whether it's adding a new conversion format, improving the layout of a page, or implementing a complex encryption algorithm, we're all ears.
Security & Privacy in Communication
Privacy isn't just a feature of our tools; it's a fundamental principle that extends to how we communicate with you. When you send us an email or use our contact form, we treat your information with the utmost respect. We only use your email address to respond to your inquiry and never for marketing purposes unless you explicitly ask to stay updated. We do not sell or share your contact information with third parties.
If you're reporting a security vulnerability, we take those reports very seriously. We encourage responsible disclosure and will work with you to understand and mitigate any potential risks. While we don't have a formal bug bounty program yet, we are incredibly grateful to the security community for helping us keep our users safe. For sensitive security matters, feel free to reach out via email, and we can discuss the best way to handle the information securely.
Our Commitment to User Support
ConvertPDF is currently a small team (often just a single dedicated developer), but we are committed to providing helpful and timely support. We might not have a 24/7 call center, but we do read every message that comes our way. We aim to respond to all inquiries within 24 to 48 hours, though it might take a bit longer during busy periods or holidays.
Our support philosophy is simple: we treat you like a human being, not a ticket number. We'll give you honest answers, technical explanations when needed, and a clear timeline for any fixes or updates. We're proud of the community that's growing around ConvertPDF, and we're here to make sure you have the best possible experience with our tools. Thank you for being a part of this journey to make document processing more private and accessible for everyone.
