Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this to edit typos in existing PDF text?
No. PDF is a fixed-layout format. This tool adds new text annotations over the page rather than modifying underlying text.
Can I position text anywhere on the page?
Yes, click anywhere on the page preview canvas to place your text at that exact coordinate.
