Frequently Asked Questions about PDF Editing
What can I edit in a PDF with this tool?
This tool allows you to add new text to any page of your PDF. You can position the text anywhere, choose colors, and adjust font sizes. It's perfect for filling out forms, adding annotations, inserting notes, or labeling diagrams. The tool adds a new text layer without modifying existing content.
Can I edit or delete existing text?
This tool focuses on adding new text annotations. For editing or removing existing text, you would need more advanced PDF editing software. Our tool is designed for adding comments, filling forms, and making annotations — the most common quick editing needs.
Is my data secure during editing?
Absolutely! The entire editing process happens locally in your browser using PDF.js and pdf-lib. Your PDF file never leaves your computer — no uploads to any server. This ensures complete privacy for sensitive documents like contracts, forms, or personal files.
How do I position text correctly?
You can adjust X and Y coordinates to place text anywhere on the page. X=0 is the left edge, Y=0 is the top edge. We recommend previewing the page to see where text will appear. The canvas shows your PDF page, and you can experiment with coordinates to find the perfect spot.
Can I edit multiple pages?
Yes! You can navigate between pages using the Previous/Next buttons, add text to each page independently, and download a single PDF with all your edits applied. The tool preserves all text additions across pages.
What happens to the original formatting?
All original content, formatting, images, and layout remain completely intact. The tool adds new text as a separate layer on top of the existing PDF. When you download, you get the original PDF with your text additions overlaid.
Will this work on mobile devices?
Yes! The tool is fully responsive and works on smartphones and tablets. The canvas may be smaller, but all editing features are available. For best experience, use a tablet or desktop for precise text positioning.
