How to Add Text to a PDF

Adding a short note, label, or other text to a PDF does not need to require a full desktop PDF application. With ChangingPDF, you can add text directly in your browser.

How to add text to a PDF

1. Open your PDF. Upload the PDF you want to change to the ChangingPDF editor.
2. Add a text block. Use the text tool to place new text on the PDF.
3. Enter your text. Type the content you want to add to the document.
4. Position the text. Move the text block to the location where you want it to appear.
5. Resize it if necessary. Adjust the text block so it fits the document.
6. Export the PDF. Download your edited PDF when you are finished.

What can you use added PDF text for?

Adding text can be useful for short notes, labels, corrections, annotations, or information that needs to appear on an existing PDF.

Do I need to install software?

No. ChangingPDF runs in your browser, so you can use the editor without installing a desktop PDF editing application.

Can I move the text after adding it?

Yes. Added text can be positioned on the page and resized so that it fits the document.
