About PDF Edna: Edit PDF Text, Fix Typos, Move Any Text
Edit the text of any PDF — fully local, nothing uploaded.
Click a paragraph, retype it, done: the words reflow to fit and nothing else on the page shifts. Fix typos, update details, move text and images — WITHOUT ever uploading your PDFs to a server. Everything happens right in your browser 100%.
PDF Edna — real text editing in one place
✏️ Edit — click any paragraph and just type; it reflows in the document's own fonts.
📝 Fix PDF typos — click a word and retype it.
🎨 Recolor — select text, pick a color; one word or the whole paragraph.
🧲 Move — drag paragraphs and images anywhere; spacing, kerning, and fonts are preserved exactly, with a warning before text lands on text.
📄 Fix scans — if the scan has an OCR text layer, click a word and retype it; a page-matched patch covers the old print and search stays in sync.
🗑️ Delete — remove a paragraph or an image cleanly.
↩️ Undo — step back through every edit (Ctrl+Z / ⌘Z).
💾 Safe saves — always a new copy; your original file is never touched.
USE CASES
⚡ Fix the typo in an invoice, report, or flyer seconds before sending — no source file needed.
📝 Update a date, price, name, or address on a PDF someone else made.
🔍 Correct OCR mistakes so scanned paperwork finally searches right.
🖼️ Tidy a layout — nudge a heading, move a logo, rearrange sections.
🔒 Keep it private — no upload, no account, no watermark.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your files never leave your computer. PDF Edna has no servers, no accounts, no analytics, and no tracking — all PDF reading and writing happens locally in your browser.
