Pick the language and click the button. Each page is read on your device in a few seconds.
Click any line to change it, then download your document.
A scan is a picture of text, so there is nothing to edit until the words are recognized. The editor reads them in your browser (OCR) and places them exactly over the printed words; when you change a line, the old words are covered and your new text is written in their place.
Unchanged parts of the page stay exactly as scanned. A line you edit is redrawn in a clean standard font on a background matched to the paper, so it's easy to read — but it won't copy a typewriter or handwriting.
English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese and Italian. Accuracy depends on the scan: sharp, straight pages work best.
Editing is free — no signup, no watermark, and no trial that rebills you later. Downloading your finished file is a one-time $1.97 per document, refundable for 7 days.
No. Your PDF is opened and edited entirely inside your browser. Nothing is uploaded, so even sensitive documents stay private on your device.
Change text, add notes, sign, and annotate any PDF right in your browser. Your file never leaves your device, and edited text keeps the document's real font so your changes are invisible.
Draw or type your signature and place it anywhere on the document. No account, no upload — your signed file stays on your device.
Drop a text box anywhere on the page and type. New text automatically matches the font, size, and color of the nearby document text, so it blends in instead of looking pasted on.
Editing PDFs online is safe when the tool works locally in your browser and doesn't upload your file. Here's how to tell, and what to avoid.
