How to add text to a PDF
Fylento lets you place new text on top of existing PDF pages, move it into position, adjust its size and style, then save a new edited copy.
Add your PDF
Select one PDF from your device and move between its pages using the editor controls.
Enter and place new text
Type the text you want to add, then click the PDF preview to place it on the current page.
Position and save
Drag added text into position, customize it, then download a new PDF containing your additions.
What you can edit with this tool
The current editor is an add-text editor. It adds new PDF text objects without replacing the original page content.
Add text anywhere on a page
Click the page to place new text, then drag that text to adjust its position.
Change size and style
Choose font sizes from 10 to 72 and switch between regular and bold Helvetica.
Choose text color
Added text can currently be black, blue, or red.
Existing PDF text is not rewritten
This tool does not directly select, delete, replace, or reflow text that already exists inside the source PDF.
The original PDF pages stay intact
Fylento loads the original PDF and draws your new text onto those pages. It does not intentionally rasterize every page into an image just to save the edits.
Original page content is preserved
The source pages remain PDF pages while the newly added text is drawn into the document.
New text remains PDF text
The added text is written using embedded standard PDF fonts rather than being burned into a screenshot of the page.
Edit PDFs privately in your browser
PDF previewing and editing happen on your device. The document does not need to be uploaded to a remote editing service just to add text.
Local page previews
Fylento renders each page preview in your browser so you can position new text visually.
Local PDF creation
Your added text is written into a new PDF in the browser and downloaded directly to your device.

Edit PDF FAQ
Can I edit text that already exists in the PDF?
Not with the current editor. Fylento can add new text, move newly added text, and change its style, but it does not directly rewrite existing PDF text.
Can I move text after adding it?
Yes. Select an added text item in the preview and drag it to a different position on that page.
Which fonts and colors are available?
The current editor uses Helvetica or Helvetica Bold and supports black, blue, and red text.
Does editing flatten my PDF pages?
No. The tool loads the original PDF and draws new text onto its pages rather than intentionally rendering every page as an image.
Does Fylento upload my PDF?
No. The current Edit PDF workflow runs locally in your browser.
