Edit PDFs – right in the document

Edit a PDF like a text document

With CtdPDF you click straight into the text of a PDF and change it – no detour through another program. Fix typos, update prices, replace an address: CtdPDF recognises connected text blocks, keeps the font, size and colour and inserts your change seamlessly.

• Change, delete and move text: select whole blocks, rephrase, recolour or drag them elsewhere.
• Edit images and graphics: select logos, shapes, lines and pictures individually – or with a selection rectangle – then move or remove them.
• Add new content: text boxes, images, shapes and stamps on any page.
• Organise pages: insert, delete, rotate and reorder pages by drag & drop.

Edit a PDF in three steps

1. Open the PDF in CtdPDF (double-click, drag & drop or File › Open).
2. Choose the Edit text tool and click into the text.
3. Make your change and press Ctrl+S. Every step can be undone.

Why a desktop app?

Your documents stay on your computer. CtdPDF processes files entirely locally – nothing is uploaded to a cloud. That is faster, works offline and is simply the safer choice for contracts, invoices or HR documents.

Buy once instead of paying forever
