Frequently Asked Questions
Can I edit the text that is already in the PDF?
Not with this tool. Editing existing text means rebuilding the original layout and fonts, which usually damages the document. This adds new text on top instead, which is reliable and reversible.
Which fonts are available?
Sans serif, serif and monospace, each with bold and italic. They are standard PDF fonts, so the file stays small and displays identically everywhere.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Every tool here runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your PDF is never sent to a server, which is also why these tools work offline once the page has loaded.
Is it free?
Yes, and there is no sign-up or watermark. Running the site costs money, so you will see an ad while your file is being prepared. That is what keeps the tools free.
