Important
Recovery depends on the level of damage. A truncated or incomplete PDF may not contain enough information to be rebuilt.
Structural rebuilding creates a new PDF and copies every readable page from the source document. This can rebuild damaged internal references when the PDF can still be opened.
Visual recovery attempts to render every readable page and inserts it as an image into a new PDF. It can be useful when the original internal structure cannot be rebuilt.
The tool offers high, balanced and reduced quality levels. Higher quality produces sharper pages but may increase processing time and output size.
Visual recovery converts each page into an image. The visible page content remains, but interactive and structural document elements are not preserved.
The document is processed directly inside your browser and is not uploaded to SG Hub's servers.
Visual recovery may use considerable memory because each readable page must be rendered before the new PDF is generated.
