Frequently Asked Questions

How do I type on a PDF?
Drop your PDF in, and the page appears on screen. Click anywhere on it to drop a text box, then type. Move between pages with the page arrows, add as many text boxes as you like, set the size and colour, then download, your typed text is written straight into the PDF.
Does my file get uploaded?
No. The page is rendered and the text is written entirely in your browser on your own device. Your PDF is never sent to a server, never stored, and never seen by us. Safe for confidential construction drawings and NDA work.
Is the text permanent, or just an overlay?
Permanent. The text is drawn directly into the PDF content, so it stays in place and shows up anywhere you open the file afterwards, not just a temporary note in one viewer.
Is it free, with no watermark?
Free, no signup, no email, and no watermark on your file. A small thank-you tool from the team behind Ncored, the fast desktop PDF editor for heavy CAD and construction drawings.
