FAQ
Does this really modify the original text?
Honest answer: no. It covers the original content with white rectangles and overlays new text; the original text objects remain in the file (copying over the region may still pick up the old text). Do not rely on it for true redaction.
Try it ↑What is it good for?
Visual fixes — typos, updated dates or amounts, covering stray marks on scans. Not suitable when the underlying data must be irreversibly removed.
Try it ↑Is CJK text supported?
Yes, a Noto Sans SC subset is embedded automatically so text renders consistently everywhere.
Try it ↑Can I delete or replace images inside the PDF?
Yes — but only images embedded as standalone objects (XObjects). The editor lists the images it can target on the current page, with one-click delete or replace (replacements keep the original placement and size). Graphics flattened into the content or scanned pages cannot be targeted; use whiteout instead.
Try it ↑Can I rotate or delete pages right in the editor?
Yes. The page actions bar rotates the current page 90°, deletes it, or inserts a blank page after it — no need to switch tools.
Try it ↑Does a digital signature survive processing?
No. Any change to a signed PDF (merging, compressing, watermarking…) invalidates the existing digital signature — that is the tamper-proof design of PDF signatures, not a limit of this site. Process first, then sign.
Try it ↑Can I trust the processing engine?
Yes — and you can verify it: the tool runs on open-source in-browser engines (pdf-lib, pdf.js, Tesseract OCR…) on your own device. Open DevTools → Network while processing and you will see no file upload requests.
