Linked-PDF export
EUR 9 once, tax included, with no recurring fee for version 1 and no license expiry.
Three installations

Your document does not become a service upload.
PDF text extraction, mapping, match review, report generation, and linked-copy creation run in the extension. PDF contents, filenames, mapping labels, and target pages are not sent to Kastovia, Dodo Payments, Google, or an AI service.
Licensing, checkout, and optional usage analytics use the internet. Analytics is off by default and excludes document data. The extension does not include OCR and cannot match text that exists only in scanned images.
Before you link
Common questions about PDF internal links.
Does PDF Reference Linker upload my PDF?
No. PDF reading, matching, review, report generation, and linked-copy creation run locally in the extension.
What can I do for free?
You can import mappings, scan, review every match, deselect results, and download the CSV match report for free. Pro is required only to export the linked PDF.
How do repeated PDF references become links?
Map each label once by importing bookmarks or CSV, or by entering it manually. The extension finds repeated exact whole-word matches and lets you review every source and target before export.
