Guides

Step-by-step PDF guides

Each guide walks through one job from opening the file to downloading the result, with the exact menu names you will see in the editor. Most take two or three minutes.

Add or edit text

Add new text to any PDF or change the text that is already there, right in your browser. Fonts, sizes, colors, bold, italic and alignment — no signup, no upload.

Sign a PDF

Draw, type or upload your signature and place it on any page. Your signature and your document stay on your device the whole time.

Fill out a form

Type into fillable fields, tick check boxes, add check marks, dates and a signature — and download a completed PDF that keeps your answers.

Merge PDFs

Combine several PDFs into a single document in your browser, put the pages in the order you want and download the result — nothing is uploaded.

Split or extract pages

Split a PDF into separate files, save custom page ranges or pull a few pages out into a new PDF — free and entirely on your device.

Rotate, reorder & delete pages

Fix sideways scans, move pages around, remove pages you do not need, duplicate pages and insert blank ones — with undo for every step.

Draw, highlight & comment

Highlight, underline or strike through text, draw with a pen, add shapes and arrows, and leave sticky-note comments that other PDF readers can show.

Add an image, logo or watermark

Insert a picture into a PDF, resize and rotate it, set its opacity, place it behind the text and copy it to every page as a logo or watermark.

Add or remove a password

Lock a PDF with a password before you share it, or open a protected PDF you know the password for and save an unlocked copy — all in your browser.

Compress or convert

Shrink a scan-heavy PDF, export pages as PNG or JPG images, or pull the plain text out of a document — without uploading anything.

Before you start

All guides assume the same three things:

  • You are using a modern browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, Brave or Opera from the last few years) on a computer, tablet or phone.
  • You open your PDF on the home page by dropping it on the upload card or clicking the card to browse. It is opened in the browser tab and is not sent anywhere.
  • When you are done you click Download in the top-right corner of the editor. The finished PDF is generated on your device and saved to your downloads folder.
