Add Text to PDF — Frequently Asked Questions
Can I edit the text later?
Each text block is a PDF annotation until you flatten it. Re-open the file in this tool to edit.
Will the text be selectable?
Yes. Added text uses real PDF font rendering, so readers can select and copy it.
Does this work on scanned PDFs?
Yes. You can add text overlay to any PDF — image-only scans, text PDFs, forms. The overlay sits on top.
