Frequently asked questions
How is this different from “Edit PDF”?
Adding text writes on top of the page, free and unlimited. Edit PDF rewrites the existing text in its original font.
Can I choose the font and color?
Yes: size, color, bold and several fonts are available.
Does it work on forms without fields?
Yes, that’s exactly what it’s for: type on the “Name: ____” dotted lines.
Is it really free?
Yes. Merging, splitting, compressing, converting, signing and filling are free and unlimited. With a free account you can also edit the text of 3 PDFs a month in their original font and make 10 Assistant requests. The 7-day pass (€4.99) or PDFmoji Pro (€7.99 a month, no commitment) removes these limits.
