Two ways to invert

"Invert pictures too" flips everything on the page, exactly like a negative. It works with every kind of content and keeps text selectable.

Untick it to invert only text, lines and backgrounds while photos keep their natural colours, which usually looks better for documents with pictures.

Tip: Printing dark presentation slides? Invert them first to save ink, then print in greyscale.

Your files stay on your device

Most online PDF sites upload your documents to their servers. Aleynray Ai does the work inside your browser instead, on your own computer or phone.

Nothing is sent anywhere, so contracts, bank statements, IDs and medical forms stay private, and there is no waiting for uploads.
