Frequently asked questions

Can the text still be selected afterwards?

No. Each page becomes a grayscale image, so the text is no longer selectable.

Which quality should I choose?

“Normal” is fine for printing most documents; “High” is sharper but makes a bigger file.

Is PDF to Grayscale free to use on Toolkoa?

Yes, the PDF to Grayscale tool is 100% free, unlimited and requires no sign up or installation.

Are my files sent to any server when using PDF to Grayscale?

No. Every operation on Toolkoa is processed privately and locally, directly in your own browser.

Do I need to install anything to use PDF to Grayscale?

Nothing to install. PDF to Grayscale runs in any modern desktop or mobile browser, and once the page has loaded you can keep using it without relying on the connection.
