Read your document, add a note or highlight, and make the pages yours. Free, private, and right here in your browser.
Up to 20 MB. Files stay on your device. Password-protected PDFs need an unlocked copy.
Choose a PDF to start reading or editing.
Use the page controls to read your document. Select an annotation tool to edit.
Readable text from this page
Existing PDF text is available below for selecting and copying. Scanned images need OCR elsewhere.
Simple edits, without uploading your document
Open a PDF and browse its pages using Previous, Next or the page selector. Fit the page to the screen, or zoom in for a closer look. On phones, Read mode lets you scroll the page. The readable-text panel makes existing text available for copying and for assistive technology.
Add notes, drawings and highlights
Choose Add text, type your note, and click where it should appear. Text annotations support Latin characters and common punctuation. For keyboard use, the readable-text panel includes an Add note at page centre button. Draw lets you write or sketch with a mouse, pen or finger. Highlight adds a translucent yellow marker stroke. Use Undo to reverse up to 30 recent edits, including page rotation and deletion.
What this editor can and cannot change
This editor adds annotations to a PDF; it does not rewrite existing text, run OCR, securely redact content, fill interactive forms or create digital signatures. Highlights and drawings do not remove the text beneath them. Exported annotations become permanent page content. Editing a digitally signed document can invalidate its signature. Keep your original for any later changes.
Download your edited copy
Use Download PDF to save a new file with your notes and page changes. Your original stays unchanged. Edits live only in this tab, so download before closing it. Very large documents can exceed device memory even within the file limit. No file is uploaded, no account is required, and no watermark is added.
