How to easily update and edit PDFs

FineReader lets you work with any PDF as you would work with any editable document such as Microsoft® Word. With FineReader, scanned PDFs are as editable as digitally-created PDFs. Just open a PDF file and start editing: correct typos and change data or pictures directly within in a PDF, also add, delete, and rearrange pages.

1. How to correct typos and change data

Press ‘Edit’ and start editing:

You can insert and delete typos, change text font, size, color right within in a PDF document without first converting it to MS Word:

2. If you need to erase the whole area, the best tool to use is the ‘Eraser’.

Or simply outline the area and right click with a mouse:

3. FineReader also allows you to reposition the lines in a normal PDF throughout the document. Just select the line or a group of lines by pressing ‘Shift’ button and move them to required position.
