Can I change the text that is already in the PDF?

Yes. Choose Edit text and click any text on the page to change, move or delete it. It keeps its font when that font has the letters you type; otherwise a similar font is used and the result tells you. Scanned pages need OCR PDF first, because their text is a picture.

Does white-out remove the text underneath?

No. White-out covers it visually, but the original text is still in the file and can be copied out. To truly remove it, use Redact PDF.

Can I type in other alphabets?

Yes. Text in scripts such as Arabic, Hindi, Chinese or Cyrillic is written with embedded fonts, so it displays correctly everywhere.

How do I add a signature?

Use Sign PDF, which lets you draw, type or upload a signature, add initials and a date, and place them on the page.

Yes. Undo and Redo step back and forward through your changes, and the Select tool lets you move, resize or delete anything you've added before saving.

About Edit PDF

Edit PDF lets you change the text already in a PDF and write and draw on top of it. Click existing text to fix a typo, update a date or move a line; the change keeps the original font when that font has the letters. You can also type new text in any size and colour, add pictures, draw rectangles, ellipses, lines and freehand marks, highlight passages, cover areas with white-out, and bring items forward or send them back. It's ideal for correcting a letter, filling in a form that has no fields or annotating a draft before sending it.

Why your files stay private

Everything you add is drawn into the PDF by code in your browser. The document and your edits are never uploaded, and Nopload doesn't keep drafts: the work exists only in this tab until you save it.
