Edit PDF bookmarks

Give your PDF a table of contents in the side bar – by hand or automatically from the headings.

How can I check that nothing is uploaded?

Your files are processed in this browser tab. This page has no function that sends files to a server, and its security rules (Content Security Policy) forbid connections to other servers.

Check it yourself: load this page, then switch on flight mode or disconnect Wi-Fi and run the tool. It still works – because everything happens on your device.

How it works – step by step
  1. Choose a PDF

    Existing bookmarks are shown and can be edited right away.

  2. Add bookmarks

    Go to the page and enter a title – or create them from the headings. Use the arrows to sort and nest them.

  3. Save

    You get the PDF with the new bookmarks. They show up in the side bar of every PDF reader.

Why FaLe?
  • Often a paid feature

    Many PDF programs only let you edit bookmarks in the paid version. Here it is free – no account, no watermark.

  • Automatically from headings

    Larger or bold headings are detected and suggested as chapters with sub-chapters. You only correct them.

  • Chapters with sub-chapters

    Indent and outdent, move up and down – sub-items move along.

  • No upload

    The PDF is edited in your browser and never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions
Where do I see the bookmarks?

In the side bar of your PDF reader, often called “Bookmarks” or “Outline”. One click jumps to the page.

What happens to existing bookmarks?

They are loaded and shown. When you save, the list is written exactly as you see it here.

Does automatic creation work with every PDF?

Only if the headings are larger or bolder than the text. For scans without text, run “OCR PDF” first or create one per page.

Is my PDF uploaded?

No. Everything happens in your browser; after the first visit the page also works offline.
