Mark up a PDF with text, images, rectangles, highlights, and freehand drawings — without uploading the file.
Browse every page, zoom and pan, place content where you need it, undo or reset as you go, then export a new PDF with your annotations part of the page.
How to edit a PDF
- Drop a PDF into PDFPeach.
- Pick a tool — text, image, shape, highlight, or draw — and place it on the page.
- Adjust position and styling, undo if needed.
- Download the edited PDF.
Why edit PDFs with PDFPeach
Quick callouts, stamps, and sketches should not require a heavy desktop suite or a cloud uploader. PDFPeach’s editor keeps markup in the browser: free, private, and ready when you need to annotate a page before sending it out.
Exported edits become part of the page content so recipients see the same marks in ordinary PDF readers.
When to edit a PDF
- Adding captions, arrows, or boxes to a diagram
- Highlighting passages for a review pass
- Placing a logo or screenshot on a cover page
- Sketching notes that should travel with the file
What you can add
Typed text, uploaded images, rectangles and similar shapes, highlight regions, and freehand drawings. Navigate pages with zoom and pan while you work.
What export looks like
On download, annotations become part of the page in a new PDF. They are not live comment threads — recipients see the marks as page content.
Overlay limits
This version does not rewrite existing PDF text or fonts. You can cover or annotate with new layers; true in-place text editing is not included. For fillable fields, use Create Forms. For signatures on blank lines, use Fill & Sign. For permanent removal of sensitive content, use Redact PDF.
Frequently asked questions
Can I edit existing PDF text?
Not in this version. You can cover or annotate with new text, images, and shapes. Changing original text is planned later.
Are my edits saved automatically?
Edits stay in this browser session until you export. Download when you are done so nothing is lost if you close the tab.
Can I undo mistakes?
Yes. Use undo or reset before export to clear marks you do not want in the final file.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Editing runs entirely in your browser on PDFPeach — free, with no account required.
