Real PDF editing

Change the page, not just a layer above it.

Pdf Editor Pro is not only an annotator. In Edit mode you can rewrite printed PDF text, move and resize page objects, place images and add links directly in the document.

  • Select, copy, search, rewrite, resize and recolor real PDF text.
  • Move existing page artwork and place new images where needed.
  • Add links and make structural page edits before export or save.

Built for real PDFs

It edits real PDF content and stays honest about PDF limits.

You can rewrite real text, search and copy text, edit solid colors, move objects, place images and add links. Controls that would require impossible paragraph reflow stay unavailable and explain why.

Text Select, copy, search, rewrite, resize and recolor real PDF text.
Pages Add, duplicate, rotate, crop, extract, merge and reorder pages.
Forms Detected fields light up under the pointer and follow the document tab order.
Redaction Apply real redaction so hidden text is removed from the file.

Color and print

Preview the plates before the file reaches press.

Pdf Editor Pro understands screen and print color. It detects RGB, CMYK and named spot inks, shows which inks the document uses, and previews individual printing plates for production checks.

Separations palette Solo or hide plates, inspect coverage under the cursor and switch print-view behavior.

Everything in reach

A complete PDF editing workflow, not a markup toy.

PDF content editing

Rewrite printed text, move page objects, add links, place images and save the changed document.

Annotation layer

Add removable review marks: highlights, notes, stamps, drawings, text boxes and signatures.

OCR for scans

Recognize text on scanned pages so it can be searched and copied. Pages that already contain text are skipped.

Forms and signatures

Fill fields, tick checkboxes, choose radio buttons and drag saved signatures from a palette.

Page organization

Use thumbnail grids to move pages, insert from another PDF, extract ranges and assemble final packets.

Watermarks and numbers

Add page numbering, Bates labels, headers, footers and watermarks, or remove existing watermarks.

Export choices

Export as PDF, compressed PDF, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, DOCX, or a single page as SVG.

AI-ready without a separate workflow

Let an assistant do the same document work you can do.

Open Help, copy the MCP configuration, and your assistant can read pages, search for words, rewrite text, move page objects, add links and images, highlight, add notes and stamps, move pages, fill fields, apply watermarks, render pages and undo actions through the same machinery as the app UI.
