Move, rotate, resize or delete objects available for editing, including text, images and graphics. Switch between the original and editable versions. FILL FORMS AND SIGN Draw a handwritten signature with your finger or Apple Pencil. Fill in PDF text fields or add text to ordinary forms. Insert drawings, images and your own image stamps. Remove unwanted image backgrounds before adding them to a page. TURN SCANS INTO TEXT Scan paper documents with the camera or open existing photos.

Text recognition and document conversion run on your device, without uploading files to a server for processing. Download PDF Edit and get your documents ready wherever you work. PLEASE NOTE Editing options depend on the document's structure. Converting complex files or recognizing text may change the layout. Text recognition and preparing PDFs for editing require iOS 16 / iPadOS 16 or later. SUBSCRIPTIONS Exporting, sharing and printing documents require a subscription.
