How to use PDF Editor

Load a PDF, choose Edit PDF, edit detected text or add selectable objects, manage pages, undo changes and export a verified PDF.

What the tool does

Open a PDF workspace to add text, images, signatures, drawings and shapes, manage pages and export the finished document.

Supported inputs

One or more PDF files, with page ranges, ordering, rotation, annotation or export choices shown for this operation.

Actual output

An interactive workspace and an exported file created only after the user applies the available edits.

Privacy and processing

The page identifies whether the document is processed locally; sensitive documents should always be checked before use.

Limitations

Existing-text replacement uses a hybrid page-flattening workflow on edited pages, so embedded font reuse and searchable text are not preserved on those pages. Scanned pages require OCR, and existing embedded images are not automatically extracted as editable objects.

Common mistakes

Check that the selected input type, units and output format match the task. Do not discard the source before opening the result, and do not treat a preview, estimate or converted file as verified until you have reviewed it.
