About Edit PDF

Edit PDF lets you write on any PDF. Add text in any size and colour, insert images, draw freehand, add lines, boxes and circles, and highlight passages. Move and resize anything, and undo as you go.

To change words that are already in the PDF, cover them with a white box and type over them. Everything happens in your browser, so the file isn’t uploaded.

Edit PDF: frequently asked questions

Can I edit the existing text in a PDF?

Not directly. Cover it with a white filled box and type the new text on top.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes, with touch: tap to place text, drag to draw and move.

Is it safe for confidential files?

Your file never leaves your device: hellpdf does this in your browser, so nothing is uploaded and there’s no file size limit beyond what your device can handle.

Is it really free?

Yes. It’s free with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit on the tools that run in your browser.
