PDF editor

Edit PDF files more intuitively with Adobe's PDF editor.

Adobe® Acrobat® XI has a new point-and-click interface. So you can make minor edits to PDF pages as easily as you do in other applications.

How to edit text in a PDF file

Video demo: Edit text in PDF files

Watch this short video to see how easy it is to edit PDF files with Adobe's PDF editor. (1:06)

"From someone who has been editing PDF documents for years, thank you for giving me the ability in Acrobat XI to create text the way I’d expect to do it — intuitively."

— Chita Hunter, Acrobat user

NEW Find editing tools faster

No more searching to find the right tool for the job. With the new Edit Text & Images tool, all you have to do is click the text you want to edit, and the right tool appears in the editing panel.

NEW Use the PDF editor to edit text

With Acrobat XI, you can edit text as easily as you do in other popular applications. Now, just point and click to correct a typo, change a date or a font, or add new text.

NEW Automatically reflow paragraphs

Need to update text in an existing PDF paragraph? It's easy. Simply add or delete your text, or drag to resize the paragraph box. Then watch the paragraph automatically reflow to reflect your changes.

NEW Find and replace text in a single step

If you realize a word or name is misspelled throughout your document — or you need to update a phrase or date — you can search your entire PDF file and correct every instance in one simple step.

How-to guide

How to edit PDF files:

  1. Open a file in Acrobat XI.
  2. Select Tools > Content Editing.
  3. Click the Edit Text & Images tool.
  4. Click the on-page element you wish to edit, which automatically activates the tools you'll need.
  5. Choose the tool that best fits your task.
