Everything about using TPLAND, in plain words. Can't find your answer? Contact us.

Getting started

1. Pick a tool — from the menu, the home page or its search box (try "compress" or "word to pdf").
2. Choose your files — press the button, or drag the files onto the page. On a phone, tap to pick from your files or photos.
3. Press the big blue button and download the result.

No account is needed for everyday jobs, and nothing has to be installed. TPLAND works in any up-to-date browser on a phone, tablet or computer.

Using a tool

• Several files (Merge PDF, JPG to PDF): each file shows as a card with a number. Drag the cards — or use the ‹ › buttons — to set the order. The first card comes first.
• Pages (Organise, Rotate, Remove, Extract): every page appears as a picture. Click pages to choose or turn them; in Organise, drag them into a new order.
• Options are on the right (below the files on a phone). If you leave them alone, the usual choice is used.
• Waiting: most jobs take seconds. Big files and Word, Excel or PowerPoint files can take a minute — keep the page open. If many people are working at once you see how many jobs are ahead of yours.
• The download page shows the finished file. Press Download. Delete now removes your files from our server at once.
• Keep going with this file: send the result straight to another tool (for example, compress the PDF you just merged) without uploading it again.
• Several results (Split PDF, PDF to JPG) come together in one ZIP file. Your phone or computer opens ZIP files by itself.

Edit and Sign PDF

• Click a tool in the bar above the pages, then click on the page. Text: click where it should start and type. Box, circle, line, arrow, highlight, white-out: drag on the page. Draw: draw with your mouse or finger. Picture: click where it goes, then choose a JPG or PNG.
• To change something you added: choose Select and click it. Drag to move it, pull the round corner to resize it, change its colour or size in the bar, or press Delete. Ctrl+Z undoes.
• The words already in a PDF cannot be changed — no PDF tool can do that reliably. Cover them with White-out and type the new words on top.
• English and other Western European text is added as real text. Hindi, Malayalam and other scripts are added as a sharp picture of your text: they look right but cannot be selected or searched.
• Signatures: draw one, type your name in a handwriting style, or upload a photo of your signature on white paper (the white is removed). Then click where it goes; Date adds today's date. This puts a picture of your signature on the page — it is not a DSC digital-certificate signature.
• The editing happens in your own browser. Your signature is not kept anywhere except in the PDF you save.

Image tools

• Your photos stay on your device. They open in your browser and are worked on there; only the finished pictures are sent to TPLAND so you can download them, keep them in My files or keep going with another tool.
• Many at once: Resize, Compress, Convert, Rotate and Watermark work on many pictures in one go; you get them back in one ZIP file.
• Resize image to KB is for forms that say "photo under 50 KB": type the size, and the best quality that fits is found for you. If it cannot fit, the picture is made a little smaller in pixels.
• Passport size photo gives the photo in the exact size and a sheet of copies to print on 4 × 6 inch photo paper or A4 — print it at "actual size". Exam photo and signature resizer makes the exact pixels and KB a form asks for; always check your exam's notification.
• Photo editor: light and colour, filters, crop and turn, words, drawing and stickers. Turning or cropping fixes what you added in place.
• iPhone photos (HEIC) open on the HEIC to JPG and Convert image pages.
• Picture size: each plan takes pictures up to a number of megapixels (see below) — a normal phone photo is about 12 MP.
• Use an up-to-date browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari). Very large pictures on an older phone may be made a little smaller to fit the phone's memory.

Your files and privacy

• Every plan: the files you upload are deleted as soon as the job is done.
• Free plan and without an account: the result is deleted after 5 minutes, or 2 minutes after you download it — so download it straight away. Nothing is stored.
• Pro: results are saved in My files for 1 day, up to 250 MB. When it is full, the oldest saved files make room for new ones.
• Elite: results are saved in My files for 7 days, up to 1 GB. When it is full, the oldest saved files make room for new ones.
• Delete now on the download page removes everything at once.
• Nobody at TPLAND looks inside your files. Uploads travel over a secure (HTTPS) connection.
• Passwords you type into Protect PDF or Unlock PDF are used for that one job and then removed.

The full details are in the privacy policy.

Limits and plans

When you reach a limit, the page says which one and which plan lifts it. Daily jobs start again at midnight; a job that did not work does not count. One plan covers every tool on TPLAND. See pricing.

Accounts and payments

• Getting a plan: on Pricing, choose a plan, enter your name, email and a password, and pay. Your account is made at the same moment.
• Paying: UPI, QR code or card, through Cashfree. Prices include GST. We never see your card or UPI details.
• One payment = one month. Nothing renews by itself. We email you a few days before the month ends; pay again on your Billing page (Account menu → Billing) to add another month — it starts when the current one ends, so no days are lost.
• GST invoices are on your Account page under Payments. To have your business name or GSTIN on them, fill in Billing details there before paying.
• Forgot your password? Use "Forgot password?" on the sign-in page.
• Two-step sign-in (a code from an app on your phone) makes your account safer: Account → Profile and password.
• Refunds: see the refund policy.
