How to Edit a PDF Online: A Step-by-Step Guide
Our online PDF editor is designed for simplicity and ease of use. Follow these steps to start editing your PDF documents right away:
1. Upload Your PDF File
Start by uploading the PDF file you wish to edit. We ensure your files are safely uploaded via an encrypted connection, prioritizing your data security. Rest assured that your files are processed securely and permanently deleted from our servers after editing.
For users who prefer offline editing, we also offer Sejda Desktop, which provides the same features as our online service but operates directly from your computer, ensuring your files never leave your local machine and allowing you to utilize your installed fonts.
To upload, simply click the ‘Upload’ button and select your PDF from your computer’s files. Dragging and dropping files directly onto the page is also a convenient option.
You can also upload PDFs directly from cloud services like Dropbox or Google Drive. Just expand the ‘Upload’ dropdown menu and choose your preferred cloud storage to select your file.
2. Add Text to PDF Documents
To insert new text into your PDF, ensure the ‘Text’ tool is selected from the toolbar. Then, simply click anywhere on the PDF page where you want to add text. Start typing to insert your desired content.
3. Modify Existing Text in PDFs
Need to change text that’s already in your PDF? Select the ‘Text’ tool from the top toolbar. Click on the text you want to edit, and you can begin modifying it immediately. Our editor provides options to customize your text: make it bold or italic, adjust the font size, change the font family, and even alter the text color to match your document’s style.
4. Insert Images into PDF Files
Adding images to your PDF is straightforward. Click on the ‘Images’ menu and select ‘New Image’. Choose an image file from your computer, and then place it anywhere on the PDF page. You can easily reposition the image by dragging it with your mouse, and resize it by dragging the corners to achieve the perfect fit.
5. Fill Out PDF Forms Online
Filling out PDF forms is simple with our editor. If your PDF contains interactive form fields, just click on any field and start typing your information. For forms that aren’t interactive, select the ‘Text’ tool to type text into the form fields, and use the ‘Forms’ tool to add checkmarks and radio buttons where needed.
6. Add and Edit Hyperlinks in PDFs
Enhance your PDFs by adding new hyperlinks to external websites or to other pages within the document. Our tool also allows you to easily edit existing hyperlinks, ensuring your links are always accurate and up-to-date.
7. Whiteout Content in PDF Documents
Need to redact sensitive information? The whiteout feature lets you cover parts of your PDF page with a white rectangle, effectively making the underlying content invisible. This is perfect for concealing confidential data before sharing your document.
8. Add Shapes to PDF Pages
Use the ‘Shape’ tool to insert rectangles or ellipses onto your PDF pages. Customize the appearance of your shapes by changing the border and background fill colors to highlight specific areas or add visual elements to your document.
9. Find and Replace Text in PDF Files
Quickly find and replace words or phrases throughout your PDF document. This feature is invaluable for making global edits, correcting errors, or updating terminology across your entire PDF in seconds.
10. Insert Form Fields into PDFs
Make your PDFs interactive by adding form fields. Click on ‘Forms’ in the top menu and select the type of field you need: Text, Multiline Text, Dropdown, Checkbox, or Radio buttons. Place the chosen form field type on the page, and enter the field’s name and default value, if necessary, to create fillable forms directly in your PDF.
11. Annotate PDF Pages Directly
Collaborate effectively by using the PDF annotation tools. Highlight important text or use strikethrough to mark revisions directly on the PDF pages. Click on ‘Annotate’, choose your desired style (highlight, strikethrough), and then select the text to apply the annotation.
12. Save Your Edited PDF
Once you’ve finished editing your PDF, click the ‘Apply changes’ button to finalize your modifications. Then, click ‘Download’ to save your edited PDF document back to your computer.
With our online PDF editor, you have all the tools you need to modify your PDF documents quickly and efficiently, right at your fingertips. Start editing your PDFs online today and experience the convenience firsthand!
