Frequently asked questions
How do I edit the text that is already in the PDF?
Keep the Edit text tool selected and click the line you want to change. It is covered with the background color and the new text is written in its place, in the same position and size.
Does the edited text keep the original font?
It looks similar, but not identical. A PDF does not store fonts in a way that can be reused, so the new text uses Helvetica, Times or Courier, whichever is closest, with bold and italic when the original had them. For new text you can choose the size, color and family.
Can I use it to hide confidential information?
No. The original text stays inside the file, just covered on top. To really hide data, use the tool for hiding parts of a PDF, which turns the page into an image.
Does it work with scanned PDFs?
A scanned PDF is just a picture of the page, with no text to edit. You can cover parts and write over them, or first run the file through the OCR tool.
Is it really free?
Yes, 100% free. No sign-up, no subscription and no usage limits. All Tools123 are free.
