How PDF Editor works
To edit a PDF without installing software, choose the file below, make visual changes in the browser workspace, then preview and download the result.
Use PDF Eye as a visual PDF workspace for page management, text boxes, searchable-text replacement, signatures, images, drawing, highlights, and watermarks.
PDF Eye works as an online PDF editor for the changes most people actually make: adding a text box, dropping in a signature or logo, highlighting a clause, or moving pages around. There is nothing to install and no account is needed to work on a file. Everything happens inside your browser tab, so a contract, a payslip or a tax form is never sent to a server. It suits students, freelancers and small teams who need a quick edit rather than a full desktop suite.

Details and common questions
Which files are supported?
One PDF, including mixed-size and rotated pages.
What result will I receive?
One edited PDF using your chosen filename.
What should I know before using it?
- Replace works only with embedded searchable text; OCR is not included.
- Pages containing replacements are flattened on export, so their links, forms, and searchable text are removed.
- Visual signatures are not cryptographic digital signatures.
Does PDF Eye change untouched pages?
Untouched pages are copied from their source. Overlay-only pages retain their original page geometry, while replacement pages are intentionally flattened.
Can I edit a scanned PDF?
You can add visual objects and markup, but scanned text cannot be selected or replaced without OCR.
How do I edit a PDF without Adobe Acrobat?
Open the PDF in PDF Eye, use the toolbar to add text, images, highlights or a signature, manage pages in the page panel, then preview and download the edited copy. No software installation is required.
Can I edit a PDF on my phone?
Yes, within the mobile limits of 100 pages or 30 MB. The same browser editor works on phones and tablets, though precise placement is easier on a larger screen.
