How this workspace works
- Choose a PDF file.
- Add text or highlights by typing coordinates, or place images, rectangles and freehand strokes on the page preview.
- Download the edited PDF and check the edited pages.
Place items visually on a page preview
Click or drag on the preview to place an image, a rectangle, or a freehand stroke. This only adds content on top of the page — it does not edit existing PDF text, and it does not work on rotated pages: neither visual nor typed-coordinate items can be placed on a rotated page, so rotate the page first with Rotate PDF. The typed-coordinate items above remain the keyboard alternative on unrotated pages.
Choose a PDF first — the page preview appears after your file is added.
Your file never left this device, so there is no server copy to delete. Download again, start over, or continue with a related tool below.
How to use Edit PDF (text/annotate)
- Choose a PDF file.
- Add text or highlights by typing coordinates, or place images, rectangles and freehand strokes on the page preview.
- Download the edited PDF and check the edited pages.
A good use for this
Adding a note, a correction, or a highlight to a PDF without opening a full document editor.
Limits
You edit by adding items on top of the page — the tool does not re-flow the PDF's original text, so existing paragraphs cannot be rewritten as in a word processor. Visual placement does not work on rotated pages.
