Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is this PDF Editor free to use?
Yes, it is completely free to use with no limits, no registration required, and no watermarks added to your files.
Can I edit existing text in the PDF?
This tool is an annotator. It allows you to overlay new text, shapes, highlights, drawings, and images onto your original PDF document. You can cover existing text with shapes or highlights, but not directly edit the base text stream.
How do I add a signature to a PDF?
You can sign a PDF either by using the 'Freehand Draw' tool to draw your signature directly on the page, or by choosing 'Add Image' to import an image of your signature.
Does this save the original PDF quality?
Yes! The original quality of the document is perfectly preserved. The tools are vectorized overlays, and when you save, the edits are rendered as transparent PNGs aligned with the native resolution.
What file formats are supported?
This editor natively supports standard Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Standard raster image formats (PNG, JPEG) can be uploaded for placement as annotations.
