What You Can Edit in Your PDF
EditPDF provides a full suite of document editing tools operating directly inside your web browser without sending your document bytes to external cloud servers.
Edit PDF Text
Click existing text lines in your PDF to edit text content, change font family (Helvetica, Times, Courier), adjust font sizes, change text colors, and apply bold or italic formatting.
Sign PDF Online
Create digital signatures by drawing with your mouse or touchscreen, typing handwritten-style signatures, or uploading image signatures to complete PDF contracts and forms.
Insert Rubber Stamps
Apply standard document status stamps such as Approved, Confidential, Draft, Final, and Received, or place custom image badges onto any PDF page.
Search & Replace Text
Search for specific words or patterns across all pages of your PDF document and execute instant single or multi-page batch find-and-replace updates.
Redact Sensitive Data
Blackout sensitive PII, account numbers, and private text. Purges underlying redacted text elements from the exported PDF document streams so text cannot be highlighted or copied.
Add & Export Links
Attach web links (`http://`, `https://`) or email links (`mailto:`) to any text block. Hyperlinks are embedded as standard interactive PDF URI annotations.

Local Browser Processing: How Your Privacy Is Protected
Traditional online PDF editors require you to upload your files to remote cloud servers. Once uploaded, your sensitive documents—such as tax returns, bank statements, legal contracts, or HR records—may be stored in server caches or processed by unknown third parties.
EditPDF works differently: Your PDF is processed locally in your browser. The editor does not require you to upload the document to a server, ensuring your document data stays on your device during local processing. Using client-side JavaScript, WebAssembly, and local PDF rendering engines, all text modifications, font rasterization, and PDF stream updates occur strictly within your browser sandbox.
Supported PDF Editing Capabilities
Full inline editing, formatting, moving, and deletion of existing text objects in native digital PDFs created from Word, Google Docs, or PDF generators.
Supports overlaying new text fields, digital signatures, rubber stamps, watermarks, and blacking out sections via redaction boxes.
Add clickable external links to text elements upon export. Optional metadata sanitization strips author tracking tags upon export.
