Repair PDF
Honestly, there's nothing more frustrating than when a crucial PDF just won't open. You know the feeling - you're presenting to a client, submitting a report, or trying to access an important contract, and boom: "The file is damaged and could not be repaired." We see this happen to our clients all the time. Power outages during saves, interrupted downloads, storage drive issues - PDF corruption is more common than people think. Our repair tool analyzes damaged file structures and recovers whatever content is salvageable, because losing important documents shouldn't be an option.

How PDFWizard tackles file corruption
Look, we're not going to sugarcoat this - sometimes a PDF is beyond saving. But more often than you'd think, corruption affects only specific parts of a file while leaving the core content intact. Here's our approach:
Structure analysis and rebuilding
PDF files have complex internal structures with cross-reference tables that map where content is located. When these get damaged, readers can't find the content even if it's still there. We analyze and rebuild these structures to make content accessible again.
Content extraction and recovery
Even when file headers are damaged, we can often extract individual pages, text blocks, and images from the file's data streams. Our tool reassembles these elements into a functional PDF, preserving as much original formatting as possible.
Smart damage assessment
Before starting repairs, we assess the extent of corruption and provide realistic expectations about what can be recovered. This prevents false hopes and helps you understand which parts of your document are salvageable.
Multiple recovery techniques
We use several approaches: rebuilding file structures, extracting raw content streams, and filtering out corrupted pages. If one method doesn't work, we automatically try others to maximize recovery chances.
