Frequently asked questions
Is the PDF editor really free?
Yes. It is free with no sign-up and no watermark.
Is it safe? Are my files uploaded?
The editor works on your device. Your file is not sent to a server.
Is it as good as Adobe Acrobat?
No, and we won't pretend it is. It covers everyday jobs such as filling forms, signing and adding text. It does not rewrite the existing text in a PDF, read scans or protect files with passwords.
Can I use it to hide private details?
No. The Cover tool places a white box over content, but the words are still inside the file. Do not use it for private details. Acrobat Pro can permanently remove them.
