About this tool

Need to fill in a form that has no fields, add a name and date, or write a note on a document? This page opens the PDF editor ready to add text: click where the text should go, type, then move it and set the font, size, color, bold or italic. It is saved as real text in the PDF, not as a picture, and Arabic and other scripts are written correctly.
