## About Evlar PDF Editor

A PDF editor that changes the words, not just the look of them.

## Edit text

Click a line and retype it. The new text goes in with the document's own font, size and color, on the same line, and the old text is removed from the file rather than hidden under a white box.

## Redact, with proof

Mark names, account numbers and anything else for redaction and apply it. When you save, Evlar PDF Editor searches the saved file for every phrase you redacted and tells you how many remain, which should be none. It clears the file's details too, like author and title, since those often carry the very name you removed. Save the report to keep with the file.

## Scanned pages

Make a scanned PDF searchable. The text is read on your PC and added invisibly behind each page, so you can find and copy it while the page looks exactly the same.

## Sign and fill

Sign and initial documents. Fill in forms, or design your own with text fields, checkboxes, option buttons, drop-downs, lists and signature fields.

## Mark up and organize

Highlight, underline and strike through text. Add notes, text boxes, drawings, shapes, arrows and stamps. Rotate, reorder and delete pages.

## Know what you are saving

The Changes list shows each edit since the last save. Press Ctrl+Q to find any command by name.

## Private by design

Everything happens on your PC. No account, no upload, and it works offline.
