Frequently asked questions
How can I edit text in a PDF for free?
Upload your PDF above — every page appears below. Click any text in the document, change the wording, and click “Save Changes”. Then download your edited PDF.
Does the edited text keep its position and size?
Yes. The replacement text is placed at the exact position and size of the original, matched to the closest standard font. For best results, keep the new text similar in length to the original.
Is there a daily limit?
Yes — 30 free text edits per day. The limit resets every day. Login and Pro plans with higher limits are coming soon.
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
No — scanned PDFs are images without selectable text, so there is nothing to click and edit. It works on normal text-based PDFs.
Is my PDF uploaded to a server?
No. Editing happens entirely in your browser. Your PDF never leaves your device.
