The Live PDF Editor lets you add text, shapes, highlights, freehand drawings, and images directly onto a PDF with a real-time preview as you work - runs entirely in your browser, so nothing is uploaded to a server while you edit. It's suited for marking up a document, filling in a form that isn't fillable, annotating a report for review, or making small edits without needing full desktop PDF software.
Frequently asked questions
No - this editor runs entirely in your browser. Your file is opened and edited locally on your device and is never sent anywhere unless you choose to download/save the result yourself.
Text boxes, shapes, highlights, freehand drawings, and images can all be placed anywhere on any page, with a live preview showing exactly how the final PDF will look.
This tool is built for annotating and adding new content on top of the page rather than directly rewriting existing embedded text - use it to add corrections, notes, or cover existing text with a highlight/shape as needed.
Since everything runs in your browser, be sure to download/export your edited PDF when you're done - closing the tab without saving will lose unsaved changes, the same as any local editing tool.
