About the PDF Editor
Most free PDF editors only let you write on top of a page. The GoToolz PDF Editor actually edits what is inside the file. Open a PDF and every line of text and every image on the page becomes editable: click a line to change the text, drag it somewhere else or delete it, and select an image to move, resize or remove it. Your changes are written into the PDF's own content, so deleted text and images are really gone rather than hidden under a white box, and everything you did not touch stays exactly as it was, sharp and selectable.
You can also add new content: type text anywhere (handy for forms that are not fillable), sign with a drawn, typed or uploaded signature, draw freehand, insert a logo or stamp, white out an area and highlight important lines. Changed a line by mistake? Press Undo. Edited text is saved with a standard font that closely matches the original (sans-serif, serif or monospace, bold or italic), and text in Urdu, Arabic, Hindi or Chinese is saved as a crisp high-resolution image of the text.
Everything runs in your browser. The PDF is never uploaded, there is no account, no page limit and no watermark. Scanned PDFs are pictures of pages, so their text cannot be edited directly: use Whiteout and Add text for those.

Good to know
- Scanned PDFs are pictures of paper, so their text cannot be edited. You can still add text, whiteout and signatures on top.
- When you change a line, the editor tries to keep the original font. If the new letters are missing in that font, a similar font is used.
- Use Undo freely. Nothing is saved until you download the edited PDF.
How to use the PDF Editor
- Drop your PDF into the upload area. Text lines and images are detected automatically.
- With Edit content selected, click a line of text to change it, or click an image to move, resize or delete it.
- Use Add text, Sign, Draw, Image, Whiteout or Highlight to add new content.
- Click Save & download PDF.
Frequently asked questions
Can I edit the existing text in a PDF?
Yes. Choose Edit content and click any line of text to change it. The original text is removed from the PDF and your new text is written in its place with a matching font size and color.
Can I delete or move images in a PDF?
Yes. Click an image to select it, drag it to move, use the round handle to resize it, or press Delete to remove it. Images are moved without re-compression, so quality stays the same.
Why can I not edit the text in my scanned PDF?
A scanned PDF contains photos of pages, not real text. Use Whiteout to cover the old words and Add text to type new ones, or run OCR first.
Does it add a watermark?
No. The editor is completely free with no watermarks or page limits.
Can I fill in a PDF form?
Yes. Use Add text to type answers anywhere on the form and Sign to add your signature.
Is it safe to use with confidential documents?
Yes. Your PDF is opened and processed entirely inside your browser. It is never uploaded to our servers, so contracts, bank statements and ID documents stay private.
