Pinnacle includes a suite of high-performance PDF manipulation tools powered by Rust. These tools are designed to be fast, reliable, and secure.

➕ Merge & Split

Managing document volume is easy with our organization tools:

  • Merge PDFs: Select multiple files from your library or local disk to combine them into a single PDF.
  • Split PDF: Extract specific pages or ranges from a large document into new, smaller files.
  • Page Reordering: Drag and drop pages to reorganize your document structure before saving.

🖊️ Signing & Security

Professional document management requires trust and security:

  • Digital Signatures: Apply secure digital signatures to your documents.
  • Watermarking: Add "Draft", "Confidential", or custom image watermarks to protect your intellectual property.
  • Sanitization: Remove hidden metadata and sensitive information from files before sharing.
  • Forensic Redaction: Permanently "burn in" redactions so they can never be reversed by viewers.

📝 Annotation & Markup

Pinnacle's annotation engine is built for deep research:

  • AI Refactor: Select any text block and have local AI rewrite it to be more professional or concise. Changes are applied directly to the PDF stream.
  • Markup Tools: Beyond highlights, use Square, Circle, and Freehand Ink tools for detailed document review.
  • Comments: Add sticky notes and threaded comments directly on the page.
  • Extraction: Quickly copy text or images from the viewer into your research notepad.

📋 Interactive Forms

Pinnacle goes beyond simple filling with a complete form toolkit:

  • Form Builder: Add new text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns to static PDFs using a drag-and-drop interface.
  • AI Detection: Let the AI scan your document to suggest where interactive fields should be placed based on visual lines and boxes.
  • Intelligent Filling: Automatically fill forms based on your local user profile and document history.

📉 Optimization & Export

Prepare your documents for any platform:

  • Compression Presets: Choose from Web Optimized, Print Ready, or Minimal Size presets to reduce file size while maintaining necessary quality.
  • Image Export: Batch convert PDF pages into high-resolution PNG or JPG images.
  • Word Export (.docx): Export your PDFs to Microsoft Word format with layout analysis to preserve paragraphs and basic structure.

🔄 Version Control

Never lose track of your edits:

  • Version Tracking: Pinnacle automatically tracks changes when you save edits to a document.
  • Side-by-Side Comparison: Open two versions of the same document to visually see exactly what has changed between them.
