Limitations and notes

• “Edit text” is a visual replacement: it covers the old text and draws new text with a standard font. It does not change the PDF's text objects and the original text stays inside the file. It is not native editing.
• The signature is an image, not a certified digital signature. If the PDF already has a digital signature, any change invalidates it (it is not verified).
• Password protection is real AES-256; if you lose the password it cannot be recovered. Passwords are never guessed or bypassed.
• XFA forms cannot be filled in; only standard AcroForm fields. OCR (page by page) works on the regular site and can add an invisible text layer; its accuracy depends on the scan.
• PDF to Excel and Excel to PDF are not available; changing a page's paper size is not either.
