# PDF tools for designers

_Updated July 2026 · Arthize · https://arthize.com/for/designers_

Arthize gives designers and creative teams a single private workspace for proofs, portfolios, print layouts and every other PDF task — with no watermark and files deleted after each job. Client work and unreleased designs are confidential; private processing keeps proofs off public tools.

## Why designers use Arthize

A designer sends a proof as a fixed PDF, exports selected pages to high-resolution PNG for a client preview, and compresses the print layout for email approval — keeping the originals private.

**Privacy first.** Client work and unreleased designs are confidential; private processing keeps proofs off public tools. Everything runs inside your own Arthize workspace and is removed after processing.

- Handles sharing proofs as fixed PDFs that render identically.
- Handles exporting pages as high-resolution images.
- Handles compressing print-ready files without wrecking quality.

## The documents designers handle

Common documents for designers and creative teams include proofs, portfolios, print layouts, mockups, style guides. Arthize covers the full lifecycle — combine, convert, sign, redact, compress and archive — without switching tools.
