Edit PDF — add text with click-to-place
Type new text, click where you want it on the page, and download the edited PDF.
Edit PDF adds text to any page by clicking on the page preview at the position you want the text. You control font size and page number. The tool doesn't try to be a full-featured desktop editor — it's for quick edits like adding a signature line, correcting a typo, or filling in a printed form.
For heavy editing, converting the PDF to Word (with the PDF to Word tool) is often easier — edit in Word, then convert back.

Frequently asked questions
Can I edit the existing text?▾
This tool adds new text on top. For editing existing text, convert the PDF to Word first, edit, then convert back to PDF.
Can I change the font?▾
The tool uses a default sans-serif font. Font size is adjustable. Fine typographic control requires a desktop editor.
Can I add an image instead of text?▾
For images, use the Sign PDF tool — it lets you drop any PNG/JPG onto the page.
How do I position the text precisely?▾
Zoom your browser first, then click. The click position becomes the top-left corner of the text.
