Questions
Short answers before you start.
Can I edit the text in any PDF?
You can edit text in most PDFs that were created digitally, such as documents saved from Word. Scanned pages are pictures of text, so they can't be edited as text, but you can cover parts with White-out and type over them with Add text.
Will the edited text match the original font?
Edited text uses a standard font (Helvetica). It usually blends in well, but it may not exactly match unusual fonts.
Is editing a PDF really free?
Yes. There's no trial, no sign-up and no watermark.
