Add text to PDF

Add a new text label, correction note or reference to selected PDF pages. Choose the position, size and color, then inspect the result at reading size. This adds text over the existing page; it does not replace arbitrary embedded paragraphs or reconstruct the source document’s original word-processing layout. Book centers, freelancers and developers can use this free local workspace without a login or paid conversion API. Keep the original and inspect the downloaded result.

Use the arrows to put files in the order you want. Selecting more files adds them to this list.

    Page preview

    Select a PDF, then open its preview. The document stays on your device. Preview and thumbnails support up to 200 pages; larger vector jobs can use the page-order field.

    Saved processing settings

    Save paper, layout and quality settings on this device. Document text, files and passwords are excluded.

    Choose your files and review the settings.

    Keep originals and inspect the result before printing. File changes clear previous downloads. Heavy image and OCR work can take longer on a phone.

    Behind the result

    New text drawing commands are appended to selected pages. Existing page content remains part of the document beneath any added text.

    Free tools for everyday work

    Book centers, photocopy shops, freelancers and developers can use this workspace without a paid plan or account. Files are processed locally. Prepare website resources from offline setup before disconnecting; Urdu/OCR also needs the separate pack above.

    The Windows app currently includes the original four tools. The expanded tools are available on the website; app and extension updates will be separate releases.

    Answers and practical details

    Existing text changes

    Use this tool to add a note or label. It does not safely erase old text or offer arbitrary in-place paragraph editing.

    Price and accounts

    This website workflow is free without a login, subscription or paid conversion tier. Your browser supplies the processing memory and CPU.

    Local file handling

    Selected documents and generated results are processed on your device. QBMFX does not upload them to a conversion server or save them in a customer database. Hosting, advertising and opening external links are separate network activity.

    Offline preparation

    Prepare the supported website resources while connected, wait for the ready status and test the workflow before disconnecting. OCR, advanced PDF processing or fonts can need an additional local resource pack. Browser cleanup can remove saved resources.

    Installed app availability

    The Microsoft Store app and Edge package currently contain the original four tools. Website additions require a separate installed-package release and do not update those packages automatically.
