What is File Studio?

File Studio is a 100% offline desktop application for Mac and Windows that gives you a complete suite of file and PDF tools. Convert, compress, merge, split, edit, and unlock PDFs and images — all processed locally on your device. No uploads, no accounts, and no subscriptions required. Your sensitive documents like passports, IDs, and contracts never leave your computer.

Who it's for

• Privacy-conscious professionals — who handle confidential documents and need absolute assurance that files stay on-device, never uploaded to any cloud server.
• Creative and office workers — who regularly convert, resize, or compress images and PDFs for web uploads, emails, or storage optimization without sacrificing quality.
• One-time purchase seekers — who prefer a lifetime license over monthly subscriptions and want all current and future tools included in a single $29 payment.

Key features

5 PDF tools

Merge multiple PDFs into one document, split into individual pages, reorder and rotate spreads, edit page arrangements, and remove passwords from protected files. Full PDF management without uploading a single page.

10 Image tools

Handle 20+ formats including HEIC, WebP, AVIF, and 14 RAW types from Canon, Nikon, Sony, and others. Resize, compress, crop, rotate, flip, adjust filters, add watermarks, create collages, and batch process entire folders.

Batch processing

Convert, resize, or compress entire folders in a single run. File Studio processes multiple files simultaneously for maximum efficiency, saving time on repetitive tasks.

100% offline operation

All processing happens locally on your Mac or PC. No uploads, no accounts, no subscriptions — your sensitive documents stay private. Works even without an internet connection.

What stands out

Your files never leave your device — no uploads, no accounts, total privacy.

This isn't just a privacy promise; it's the core architecture. File Studio processes everything locally, meaning you can handle sensitive documents like passports, contracts, and IDs with zero risk of data exposure. Combined with a one-time $29 lifetime license that includes all current and future tools, it's a rare combination of security and value in a market dominated by subscription-based cloud services.

Worth checking out if…

You need reliable, offline PDF and image editing tools without monthly fees, or if you handle sensitive documents that must never be uploaded to the cloud. File Studio is especially useful for converting HEIC photos from iPhones to universally compatible JPGs, compressing images for web use, and managing multi-page PDFs — all from a simple native desktop app.
