FAQ

Can I sign a PDF after editing it?

Yes. You can edit the document first and then apply a signature as the final step so the visible content and final approval stay in sync.

Does editing work on scanned PDFs?

Scanned PDFs are best handled with OCR first if you need searchable text, then the editor can be used for annotations, images, highlights, and signatures.
