How to use Edit PDF

Open a PDF and click anything to edit it, like in a word processor. Retype a paragraph, move a picture, add your own text, shapes, a signature or a date, rearrange pages, and fill in form fields.

  1. Drop your PDF to open it. It opens in a full-screen workspace.
  2. Click any text to retype it, or a picture to move, resize or delete it. Use the toolbar to add text, images, signatures, drawings and highlights.
  3. Rotate, copy, move, add or delete pages in the list on the left. Undo and redo any change.
  4. Press Export and choose Download PDF. Edited text is removed from the file, not just hidden.

Frequently asked questions

Can I really edit the text in a PDF?

Yes. Click a line or paragraph, retype it, and it keeps the original size, spacing and alignment. The old text is removed from the page, not just covered. Only the standard fonts (Helvetica, Times and Courier styles) are used, so unusual fonts look similar rather than identical.

Can I edit a scanned PDF?

A scan is a picture, so there is no text to click. Use the Text tool to type on it, or Whiteout to cover something.

How do I fill in a PDF form?

Open the PDF and choose "Form fields" in the left panel. Fillable fields are listed there; typed values are written into the PDF when you download it.

Can I get other people to sign?

Yes. The signature pop-up has an Email sign option that sends the document for signature by email on the paid plans.

Is Edit PDF free?

Yes, and you do not need an account. The free plan allows up to 20 MB and 5 files at a time, and 10 free uses a day. After that you can come back tomorrow or choose a plan. The paid plans (Plus and Pro) remove the wait and raise the file size limit to 250 MB and 500 MB.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Open the page and use it. There is nothing to install, and it works on phones, tablets and computers.

What if something goes wrong?

Open Support from the menu at the top of the page and tell us what happened. A use that fails is not counted against your limit.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. It works in current versions of Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox on phones, tablets and computers. Very large files can be slow on older phones.
