Add text, boxes, or images to a PDF page
Sometimes a PDF is missing something rather than needing a correction. You want to stamp a date on an invoice, drop a note in the margin, cover an old address with a box, or place a company logo onto a form before sending it out. None of that content exists in the file, so there is nothing to select and change; you need a way to place new elements anywhere on the page while leaving the original layout alone.
Open your PDF in the tool and add text, boxes, or images wherever you click. Text lets you type a note or label onto the document, a box covers a section or draws attention to one, and an image drops in a logo, a stamp, or a mark. There are no other settings, since placement happens by hand. Your file goes to our servers over a secure connection to bake in the additions, and it is deleted within the hour once you download the result.
Because you are placing new content on top, this suits cases where the original text must stay untouched underneath. If you need to change wording already printed on the page, Edit PDF Text is built for that, matching the existing font and size automatically. If you need a signature instead, Sign PDF gives you a drawing tool for that one task.
How to use the Edit PDF tool
- Add your PDF file: drag & drop or click to browse.
- Make your changes in the editor, then download the result.
