FAQ

Can I edit existing text in the PDF, or only add new text?

This adds new text on top of the page — it doesn't rewrite existing PDF text content.

What if I make a mistake before downloading?

Remove or adjust what you've added before you download — nothing's final until then.

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

Yes — you're placing text on top of the page image, which works the same whether the PDF is scanned or native.
