Everything you need to know about BALLOONS FILES
Is Balloons Files really free?
Yes! You can convert and manage your PDFs using our local desktop application without paying anything.
Absolutely. Since Balloons Files is a local Windows application, all processing happens entirely on your own computer. Your documents are never uploaded to the internet or external servers, guaranteeing complete privacy and security for your sensitive files.
What file formats can I convert to?
You can convert files between PDF and Microsoft Office formats (like Word), as well as merge or manipulate them. Note that a local installation of Microsoft Office may be required for certain document conversions.
Is there a file size limit?
No! Unlike web-based tools, there are no artificial file size limits or batch restrictions. You are only limited by your computer's own memory and hard drive space.
Do I need an internet connection?
No internet connection is required for processing your files! The software runs entirely on your PC. An internet connection is only needed occasionally to check for application updates.
Can I process multiple PDFs at once?
Yes! You can merge, compress, or convert multiple files at the same time locally, with no arbitrary limitations on the number of files in a single batch.
How long does it take to process a file?
Because everything is processed locally on your machine, you don't have to wait for files to upload or download. Processing is extremely fast, though very large documents will depend on your computer's processing power.
What happens if validation or processing fails?
If something goes wrong—for example, if a file is password-protected, corrupted, or if Microsoft Office is unavailable—you'll see a clear error message. Your original files are completely safe and will never be modified or lost.
