About the edit tools
Changes to what is on the page rather than which pages there are. Type over a form, draw a signature, stamp a watermark, number the pages, set the document title and author, or flatten everything so it cannot be changed again.
- Sign and send back
Sign PDF places a drawn, typed or uploaded signature exactly where the document needs it.
- Mark a draft
Add Watermark tiles or centres a text or image watermark across every page with the opacity you choose.
- Make a report presentable
Add Page Numbers and Add Header & Footer put titles, dates and numbering on every page in one pass.
- Clean up before sharing
Remove Metadata strips author names and software tags; Flatten PDF bakes forms and annotations into the page.
Questions about edit tools
Can I edit the existing text in a PDF?
Edit PDF lets you add text, shapes, highlights and images on top of any page. For rewriting the original body text, convert with PDF to Word, edit there, and convert back.
Is my signature stored?
Your signature is applied inside the task and the output file follows the same retention as every other file: 1 hour for guests, 24 hours for free accounts and 7 days for Premium.
What does flattening do?
Flatten PDF merges form fields, annotations and layers into the page content so they display the same everywhere and cannot be edited by the recipient.
What metadata can I change?
Edit Metadata covers the title, author, subject, keywords, creator and producer fields. Remove Metadata clears all of them at once.
