To edit a PDF, upload it and add text boxes, freehand drawing, shapes or images directly onto the pages, then download the merged result. Edits are drawn on top of the page rather than rewriting the original text layer, which is what makes it suited to filling forms and signing documents.

Frequently asked questions
Can I edit the existing text in the PDF?
This editor adds new content on top of the page rather than rewriting the original text layer. To change existing wording, cover it with a filled shape and place new text over it, or convert to Word and edit there.
Can I sign a document with it?
Yes. Draw your signature freehand, or insert a transparent PNG of it as an image, then position it where needed.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Every conversion runs inside your own browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your files never leave your device, which means there is nothing for us to store, read, or leak.
