Frequently Asked Questions

Is URL decoding with PDFPilot really free?

Yes. URL Decode is completely free to use, with no sign-up or account required.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. The decoding runs entirely in your browser using the standard decodeURIComponent function. Your file is never uploaded to PDFPilot's servers.

What happens with malformed percent-escapes?

You'll get a clear error message rather than a broken or truncated result — for example, text ending in a stray "%2" with no complete escape sequence.

Does this decode a full URL, including the domain?

It decodes whatever text you give it — typically you'd use this on just the encoded portion (a query parameter value), not the domain, which is never percent-encoded.
