Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some common questions about editing PDFs online:
Is it possible to edit existing text in a PDF?
Our editor allows you to add new content, but for editing the original, static text, a different approach is needed. For that, you would use our PDF to Word converter. It turns your PDF into a fully editable Word document, so you can change text, images, and layouts before converting it back to a PDF.
Is there a file size limit for the editor?
Our tool is built to handle large files efficiently. While we don't have a strict size limit, larger files may take longer to upload and process. For files that are particularly large, you might want to use our PDF compressor first to reduce the size before editing.
Are my files safe and secure?
Yes. Your privacy and security are our top priority. All files are processed over a secure connection, and your documents are automatically deleted from our servers a few hours after you've finished your work.
