Private by design

Your files are opened and processed by your browser on this device. They are never uploaded to openWorkstand or anyone else, so the Gradient Generator is safe for contracts, IDs, photos and work documents, and it keeps working offline once the page has loaded. How local processing works

Good to know

  • Very large files are limited by your device’s memory; on a phone, split huge files into smaller parts first.

When to use the Gradient Generator

  • Create website backgrounds.
  • Make gradient wallpapers.
  • Design buttons and banners.

Troubleshooting

The file does not open

Check that it is one of the supported formats above and opens in another app. Damaged files and password-protected PDFs cannot be read until they are repaired or unlocked.

It is slow or stops on a very large file

Everything runs on your device, so speed depends on its memory. Close other tabs, use a computer rather than a phone, or split the file into smaller parts first.

The download did not start

Look for your browser’s download bar or icon. Some browsers ask once before a site may download files; allow it and click the button again.

Frequently asked questions

Why do some gradients look gray in the middle?

Blending complementary colors in sRGB passes through gray. OKLCH keeps the middle vivid.

Keep working with the result
