Add Text to PDF

Add Text to PDF types custom text — a note, a label, a stamp, a short message — onto a PDF's pages, right in your browser. Upload a file, write your text, pick where it should sit, and download the result. No signup, no watermark, and nothing ever leaves your device.

How to use it

1. Drop or browse for a PDF file.
2. Type the text you want to add. Multiple lines are supported — each line is drawn on its own row.
3. Choose the page(s) to stamp, like 1 or 1,3,5-7.
4. Pick a position from the 3×3 grid (top/middle/bottom, left/center/right), a font, size, and color.
5. A live preview updates automatically as you adjust settings — no need to press anything. Use View or Download once you're happy with it, as text-added.pdf.

Why add text in the browser?

Most online "add text to PDF" tools upload your document to a server just to draw a line of text. This one does the whole job locally using the pdf-lib library, so contracts, forms and anything else private stay on your device — there's no upload or download round-trip.

Can I add the same text to every page?

Yes — enter every page number (e.g. 1-10) in the pages field, and the same text is stamped at the same position on each one.

I need a repeating diagonal watermark instead of a single label

That's a different placement style — see Watermark PDF, which tiles semi-transparent text or an image across every page.

What if my PDF is password-protected?

A PDF with an owner lock but no open password usually loads fine. A file that requires a password just to open must be unlocked first — use the Unlock PDF tool, then add your text to the result.

Your file is processed entirely on your device and is never uploaded.
