Edit PDF
Add text, images, shapes, drawings, and symbols to any PDF. Everything runs in your browser — files never leave your device.
How to Edit a PDF
1.
Upload PDF – Drop the PDF file into the upload area. The editor opens in full-screen mode with the document rendered page by page.
2.
Add Content – Use the toolbar to add text, images, shapes, freehand drawings, or symbols. Click anywhere on a page to place content, then resize, reposition, or style it.
3.
Download – Click Download PDF. The edited document is generated locally in your browser and saved to your device.
Browser-Based Editing
The entire editor runs locally in your browser using JavaScript. When you upload a PDF, the file is read into memory on your device — it is never transmitted to a server. All editing operations (text placement, image insertion, shape drawing) happen client-side. The final download is also generated in-browser. This means your documents remain completely private regardless of their content. The editor works on Windows, Mac, iPhone, and Android — any device with a modern browser.
Available Tools
Text: Click anywhere on a page to place a text box. Choose font family, size, color, and alignment. Text is rendered as an annotation layer on top of the original PDF content.
Image: Upload JPG, PNG, or SVG files from your device. Position and resize them on any page. Useful for inserting logos, signatures, or photos.
Shapes: Add rectangles, circles, and lines with customizable stroke color and width. Symbols (✓, ✗, ★, →) and emojis are also available for quick markup.
Draw: Freehand drawing tool for signatures, sketches, or hand-written annotations. Adjust brush size and color.
Layer Management
Every element you add appears in the layers panel, organized by page number. You can reorder layers (which controls which elements appear on top), select a layer to edit its properties, or delete it. This makes it easy to manage complex documents with many annotations. If you need to modify the original PDF text rather than add content on top, convert the file to Word first using the PDF to Word tool, edit in a word processor, then convert back.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The editor runs entirely in your browser. Your PDF is read into local memory and never transmitted over the network. The download is also generated client-side.
Can I edit the original text inside the PDF?
This tool adds content on top of existing PDF pages — it does not modify the original text. To edit existing text, convert the PDF to Word using the PDF to Word tool, make changes, then convert back.
What types of content can I add?
Text (with font, size, and color options), images (JPG, PNG, SVG), geometric shapes (rectangles, circles, lines), freehand drawings, and symbols/emojis.
Can I add a signature to a PDF?
Yes. Use the Draw tool to create a freehand signature, or upload an image of your signature using the Image tool. Position and resize it on the document.
How does the layers panel work?
Every element you add becomes a layer. The panel lists all layers grouped by page number. You can reorder layers by dragging, select a layer to edit its properties, or delete it.
Can I edit multi-page PDFs?
Yes. Navigate between pages using the page selector. Each page has its own set of layers. All edits are preserved across pages when you download.
What happens to my edits if I accidentally close the browser?
Edits are stored in browser memory only. If the tab is closed before downloading, all changes are lost. Always download the edited PDF before closing.
Can I remove an edit after placing it?
Yes. Select the element on the page or in the layers panel, then press delete. You can remove any individual text box, image, shape, or drawing.
