Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
JOPDF is presented as a desktop PDF tool whose document editing, conversion, annotation, and protection features are consistent with its purpose. Because this app handles user documents directly, review any sensitive PDFs you open in it and download updates only from the official JOPDF site. If you installed it from a third-party source, compare the installed app name and bundle ID com.jopdf.pdf with the version you intended to use before keeping it long term.
Recommendation: Keep JOPDF if you use it for PDF editing, conversion, or annotation on your Mac. If you no longer need it, removing the app should only affect your ability to open and work with PDFs in JOPDF, not your documents themselves. If you do not recognize the installation, confirm where it came from before continuing to use it.
