Common questions about editing PDFs online
No. Everything runs in your browser using PDF.js (for rendering) and pdf-lib (for editing). Your PDF never leaves your device. This makes the tool safe for confidential documents like contracts, invoices, and medical records.
True deletion of text from a PDF is not possible in any pure browser-based tool — the PDF format doesn't work that way. Instead, the Redact tool draws a white rectangle over the text to cover it, which is the same approach used by professional redaction software. The underlying text bytes remain in the file but are visually hidden.
JPG and PNG are supported. For signatures, PNG with a transparent background works best — the transparent areas remain transparent in the PDF so your signature sits cleanly on top of the document without a white box around it.
Yes. All pages of your PDF are rendered and you can add annotations to any page. When you download, all annotations across all pages are applied to the final PDF.
PDF.js renders the preview at a scaled size for your screen. The download converts your click position back to PDF coordinates. Small positioning differences can occur due to font rendering differences between browsers and PDF viewers. For precise placement, use a slightly larger font size and verify in the downloaded file.
