Altering a PDF File

If you want to make your template editable or fillable, follow the steps below:

Upload your document sample using the drag and drop box or upload a document from your cloud storage. You can also provide a link to the document. Additionally, a user can find their document using the search field.

If the sample is already on a website, go to “My docs” or the folder that contains the necessary sample and click on it. Your template will be opened in the editor by default.

If you are completing the form, fill in the fields with the textual and numeric information. Be careful while typing in order to provide correct data. Note, that some fields require numerals only.

In case you need to add textual fields manually, use the text tool on your page. Place text where you want. This function has additional features that change the size and type of font. You may make the text bold, italic, underlined or change its color.

You can add various fields except for textual: number, date, dropdown, checkbox, photo or initials. This option is available on the right side of the page.

Once the text has been provided it can be highlighted or blacked out. Highlight the points you want to concentrate attention on. Click on the “Highlight” button and move your cursor across the line you want to highlight.

Some users may worry about personal data they include in their template. The blackout tool will help you with that. Select it from the upper tools panel and hide information using the black line. Sign the blank with the help of the signature wizard. You may add an existing signature or create a new one. Type your full name or draw a signature with the touchpad. Additionally, you may send a link to your mobile phone and draw it on the screen of the device with your finger. Also, an photo of your initials written on paper can be uploaded. Save changes in the current format or one of the other file formats. You can save your sample as an Excel spreadsheet, Word document or PowerPoint presentation. Finally, the template can be sent to be signed or shared with the help of a link. You can also attach it to an email or sent via USPS. The document can be printed or downloaded on your computer as well.

One more way to alter PDF document is via the merge function. You may include up to five PDF files in one document merge. Also, you may reorder pages to place them in your preferred order.

An advantage of our service is that PDF documents can be edited on the go. There is no need to install desktop software because all the tools are accessible in the cloud. The online-service is user-friendly and looks good on both mac and windows. It also works well on most popular owsers.
