Questions and answers

How do I edit the text in a PDF?

Open the PDF with Edit in PDFZyro and click the text you want to change. Type your changes and save; the edited PDF is saved as a new version.

Can I edit a scanned PDF?

A scan is a picture of text, so first make it searchable with OCR. After that you can select, edit and convert its text.

Is whiteout the same as redaction?

Whiteout removes the text under it and covers the area in white. To find and remove sensitive information across a whole document, such as every email address, and clean out hidden data too, use Redact PDF.

Can I undo my edits?

Yes. Every save is a new version and the original is never changed, so you can go back to any earlier version.

Is Edit PDF free?

Yes. The Free plan includes 3 edit, convert, compress or OCR tasks a day, with files up to 50 MB, and never adds a watermark. Pro removes the daily limit and is free to try for 7 days, with no card needed.
