Frequently Asked Questions

Can I edit existing text in the PDF?
The tool adds new elements on top of the existing content. To modify existing text, you can cover it with a white rectangle and place new text over it, or use the Redact tool to remove existing content.
What can I add to the PDF?
Text boxes (with font, size, and color options), images (PNG, JPG), rectangles, circles, lines, arrows, and highlight overlays. Each element can be positioned, resized, and styled.
Can I edit multiple pages?
Yes. Navigate between pages using the thumbnail sidebar and add elements to any page. Each page can have its own set of annotations and additions.
Are the edits permanent?
Yes. When you download, all additions are embedded in the PDF. They become part of the page content.

Quick PDF edits — adding a missing date, inserting a logo, highlighting key passages, or annotating a review — shouldn't require expensive software. Do it all in your browser for free.
