About this CApp
Stirling-PDF is a self-hosted PDF toolkit - merge, split, convert, compress, sign, redact, OCR and 50+ other operations, all processed on your own instance instead of an external service.
Getting started
- Open your CApp URL. Log in with the default account: admin / stirling.
- You'll be asked to set your own password immediately - do that first.
- Pick a tool from the dashboard and go. Most operations need no setup at all.
No-code pipelines
Settings > Pipeline lets you chain multiple tools into a reusable automation (e.g. "OCR then compress then watermark") without writing any code.
Storage
Uploaded files are processed and then discarded - Stirling-PDF isn't a document library. What's persisted across restarts and resource changes is your account, settings and any saved pipelines.
