Add new text anywhere, or cover existing content with a white box and type over it. This can't reflow or rewrite the PDF's original text directly — see the notes below for what that means.

Added text supports Latin characters only (standard PDF fonts).

Whiteout visually covers content — the original text underneath still exists in the file and isn't securely removed. Don't rely on it for confidential redaction.

Frequently asked questions

Can I edit the original text inside a PDF?

Not directly — PDFs don't store text in an easily-editable way. VeloraPDF lets you add new text on top, or cover existing content with a white box and type over it, which covers most real-world editing needs.

Is whiteout in Edit PDF a secure way to redact confidential information?

No — whiteout only visually covers the content. The original text underneath still exists in the file and can potentially be recovered. Don't use it for confidential redaction.

Can I highlight text in a PDF that's already there?

Yes, if the PDF has real, selectable text — use the Highlight, Underline, or Strikethrough tools to mark it directly. For scanned or image-based PDFs, use Area Highlight instead.

Is it free to edit a PDF online with VeloraPDF?

Yes, completely free, with no account required and no watermark added to your file.
