Frequently Asked Questions

Can I fix existing typos in a PDF?

PDFs are compiled vector graphics, not word documents. You can use Redact or a white shape to mask old text, then place a new Text block in its place.

Is my edited file uploaded to any cloud?

No, all drawing and vector stamping is executed inside your local browser.
