Deploy PdfDing in one click installation.
Self-hosted PDF manager with browser-based viewing, annotation, and cross-device reading position sync.
What you can build with PdfDing
PdfDing is a self-hosted PDF manager and viewer that remembers your reading position across devices, so you can start reading on a desktop and continue on a phone without losing your place. Files are organized into workspaces and collections with multi-level tagging, starring, and archiving. The browser-based viewer lets you annotate, highlight, add text, draw, and sign documents — with all annotations stored server-side and synced across every device.
Self-hosting PdfDing on your own VPS keeps your document library private: no files uploaded to a cloud service, no usage analytics, and full control over who can access your instance. Optional OIDC single sign-on, two-factor authentication, and per-link access controls make it practical for both personal and small-team use.
Key features of PdfDing
Cross-device sync
Reading position, annotations, and digital signatures sync across all devices so you never lose your place when switching between desktop and mobile.
Annotation and editing
Add text, highlights, drawings, and comments directly in the browser — no third-party tool required — with annotations stored server-side.
Collections and tagging
Organize PDFs into workspaces and collections with multi-level tags, starring, and archiving for a structured personal or team library.
Digital signatures
Sign documents in the browser and have signatures synced and preserved across all your devices without installing any desktop software.
SSO and two-factor auth
Integrate with any OIDC provider for single sign-on, and secure accounts with TOTP or WebAuthn hardware key two-factor authentication.
Shareable links
Generate access-controlled share links with QR codes for individual PDFs, making it easy to share documents without granting full account access.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
