- True text editing
- Everything on one canvas
- No watermark, no install
- How we protect your files
To edit text in a PDF, open it in the editor, click the line you want to change and type. PDFVelvet reuses the document’s own font so the fix is invisible, and you can also add text, images, highlights and shapes before saving.
How it works
- 1
Open the editor
The free editor opens in your browser — no install, no account.
- 2
Edit the page
Click text to rewrite it in the document's own font, add images, shapes, drawings and new text anywhere.
- 3
Export your PDF
Download the edited file — changes are written into the PDF itself.
True text editing
Existing text is actually replaced — in the original font, even for Arabic, Hindi and Thai — not covered with a box.
Everything on one canvas
Text, images, shapes, highlights, drawings, whiteout — one editor for every change.
No watermark, no install
The exported PDF is clean and the editor runs entirely in your browser, free.
Frequently asked questions
Can I edit the existing text, not just add to it?
Yes — click a line and retype it; the original run is removed and your text is set in the document's own font.
Do I need an account?
No — the editor is free for guests. A free account adds saved documents and higher daily limits.
Will fonts match?
Yes — the editor reuses the PDF's embedded fonts where possible, with matched substitutes otherwise.
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
Yes — run text recognition first and the scan becomes editable text.
Can I edit a PDF without converting it to Word?
Yes — the editor changes the PDF directly. Click any text line to rewrite it in place; the layout and the rest of the page stay untouched.
