Add Text to PDF

Fill out a non-fillable PDF form, add a comment to a report, sign a document by typing your name, or just add a footer note - all by adding text to the PDF. Pick font (Helvetica, Times, Courier), size, color, and position by clicking anywhere on the page. Edits export as part of the PDF.

When to use this

Use to: type into PDF forms that don't have fillable fields (most Indian govt forms), add date / signature text to contracts, add corrections to a report after the original author has gone offline, type captions on PDF screenshots / scans.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the added text searchable in the output PDF?

Yes - text is added as actual text elements (not flattened images), so it's searchable with Ctrl+F, selectable for copy-paste, and accessible to screen readers. The PDF text layer is preserved.
