General

What is SADH.IO?

SADH.IO is a collection of free online tools for everyday digital work: PDF tools, image tools, Telugu journalist tools and utility calculators. Each tool has a step-by-step guide in our Blog.

Is it really free?

Yes. All tools are free to use. There is no sign-in, no watermark on your results and no limit on how many times you can use a tool. We may show ads on some pages to cover hosting costs.

Do I need to create an account or install anything?

No. Open the tool in your browser, use it and close it. Nothing has to be installed.

Which browsers and devices are supported?

Current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on Windows, macOS, Android and iPhone. Chrome or Edge on a computer gives the best speed for large files.

Who built SADH.IO?

SADH.IO is an independent project made in India. You can learn more on the About Us page or write to us from the Contact page.

Privacy and safety

Are my files uploaded to your servers?

No. The tools run inside your browser, so your files are processed on your own device. Please see How It Works for a simple explanation.

Is it safe to use with ID cards, certificates and bank statements?

Because files are not uploaded, these documents are not copied to our servers. As good practice, use a trusted device, avoid public computers for sensitive documents, and delete downloaded copies you no longer need.

Do you use cookies or analytics?

We use basic analytics to understand which pages are useful, and we may show advertising. Details are in the Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy.

Does Voice to Text send my voice anywhere?

That tool uses the speech recognition built into your browser. Depending on the browser, audio may be processed by the browser vendor’s service. SADH.IO does not receive or store your recordings.

Using the tools

Is there a file size limit?

We do not set a fixed limit. The practical limit is the memory of your device. If a very large file fails, try a computer instead of a phone, close other tabs, or split the work into smaller parts.

How long does a tool take?

Most tasks finish in seconds. Large PDFs, OCR and PDF to Word take longer because the work is done on your device.

Will compression reduce my PDF quality?

Compress PDF re-encodes the images inside the file. Text stays sharp and selectable. Choose a lighter level if you need the best picture quality, or a stronger level if you need the smallest file.

Does PDF to Word keep the layout?

It rebuilds headings, paragraphs, bullet points, tables and pictures as real Word content. Complex layouts with many columns or text boxes may need small adjustments afterwards. Scanned PDFs need OCR first.

Can I use the tools on my phone?

Yes. All pages are designed for phones and tablets. For big files or many pages, a computer is faster.

The result file is not downloading. What should I do?

Allow downloads for sadh.io in your browser, turn off pop-up blocking for this site, and try again. More fixes are on the Help Center.

Telugu and journalist tools

What is the difference between Unicode and non-Unicode Telugu?

Unicode Telugu works in every modern app, website and phone. Non-Unicode text was typed with older fonts and looks correct only when that exact font is installed; otherwise it appears as random English letters. Our converters change one form into the other.

My converted Telugu looks wrong. Why?

Check that you chose the right direction and pasted the full text. Text copied from some PDFs already has broken encoding and cannot be converted reliably. Try typing a short sample first to confirm the tool is set correctly.

Can I use the converters for newspaper work?

Yes, they are designed for journalists and DTP operators. Always proofread important text after conversion, as no automatic converter can be perfect for every font and every special character.

Which languages does the translator support?

The English–Telugu tools and the text translator are built for everyday text. For legal or official documents please have a person check the translation.

Utility tools

Are the calculator results exact?

Calculators such as EMI, GST, age and percentage use standard formulas. Results are for information and planning. For loans, tax or legal decisions, confirm the numbers with your bank or advisor.

Do you store the numbers I enter?

No. Values you type into calculators stay in your browser and are not saved by us.

Can I suggest a new tool?

Please do. Use the Contact page, tell us the tool you need and how you would use it. Many of our tools started as a visitor’s request.
