Local PDF tool - browser processing

Insert pages into a PDF without uploading

Use Insert Pages when a packet needs an added appendix, signed page, cover page, or blank separator.

What the widget measures

The panel counts what leaves your browser after you choose a file. The site's own scripts and fonts load like any web page — what you will never see is a request carrying your PDF. Check it here, or open your browser's Network tab and see for yourself.

0 bytes of your document sentStarts measuring when you choose a file on a tool page

Document request bodies: 0 bytes
App network after file open: 0 bytes
Processing engine: Browser WASM worker

The number is scoped to request bodies after you choose a document. App assets such as JavaScript, WASM, and fonts can still load; those are not your PDF bytes.

Verify it yourself

Open DevTools, then the Network tab.
Choose a PDF in the tool and complete the action.
Filter for fetch or XHR requests; document processing should not create a request carrying your file.

Stronger check: load the tool page first, then disconnect from the network before choosing the file. Already-loaded tool code can continue processing locally, but a first visit still needs the site assets.

Steps

How to do it in Lemmafour

Choose Insert pages locally.
Open the base PDF.
Choose the insertion source or blank-page option.
Select the position where new pages should appear.
Apply the insertion and download the new PDF.

Expert note

Two-source document handling

When inserting pages from another PDF, verify both page size and orientation. A letter-size signed page inserted into an A4 packet can be valid but visually inconsistent. If the source page contains a digital signature, inserting it into a new PDF does not preserve the original certificate workflow.
