How to edit a PDF online with PDF Vault

PDF Vault is built for everyday PDF fixes: highlighting a contract, adding text, combining documents, keeping only selected pages, converting files to PDF, or exporting PDF text and page images. Editing, merge, split, export, image conversion, and readable document conversion run from the page.

Annotate the documentUse highlight, text, draw, and box tools to annotate the document visually.
Organize pagesRotate pages, delete extras, merge PDFs, or export a specific page range.

Can I highlight a PDF online without uploading it?

Yes. PDF Vault renders the PDF in your browser and lets you draw visible highlights over the page without uploading the PDF.

Can I add text to a PDF?

Yes. Use the Text tool in the editor toolbar, click the page, type directly on the PDF, adjust color or size, and download the edited PDF.

Can I draw or add boxes on a PDF?

Yes. The Draw and Box tools let you mark a page visually. These annotations are written into the downloaded PDF.

Can I edit multiple PDFs and download one merged file?

Yes. Open multiple PDFs, annotate pages, delete pages you do not need, and download one merged edited PDF.

Can I search and highlight matching PDF text?

Yes, when the PDF contains selectable text. Search-based highlighting finds matching text runs and creates highlight annotations.

Why does text highlighting not work on scanned PDFs?

A scanned PDF is usually an image of a page. It needs OCR before text can be found. You can still draw highlights manually on scanned PDFs.

Is PDF Vault private?

PDF editing, merge, split, export, image conversion, and readable document conversion run in your browser tab when supported. Any layout conversion option is shown separately when available.

Can I split or merge PDFs too?

Yes. PDF Vault includes tools for merging multiple PDFs, splitting selected page ranges, converting files to PDF, and exporting PDF text or page images.

Can I convert DOCX or text to PDF?

Can I export a PDF to text or PNG?
