What editing tools are available?

20 annotation tools: text (bold, italic, alignment, font family/size/colour), text box, callout, freehand draw, eraser, line, arrow, rectangle (with independent fill colour), ellipse (with independent fill colour), polygon, polyline, highlight, whiteout, strikethrough, underline, sticky notes, hyperlink, measure distance, redact, and reflow frame. Also image insert, signature pad, QR code, 12 stamp types, an interactive AcroForm form builder (Text, CheckBox, RadioButton, ListBox, ComboBox, Signature, PushButton), a vector path editor, prepress tools (crop marks, registration marks, CMYK colour bars, bleed areas, page-box management), and a bookmark editor for building a navigable table of contents.

Are my changes permanently embedded in the PDF?

Yes. All edits are applied server-side via PyMuPDF and flattened into the PDF structure. The final download is a standard PDF readable by any viewer — no proprietary format, no edit layer that could be stripped.

Is there a file size limit?

Files up to 50 MB are supported. Page rendering is done server-side at 1.5× scale for accurate annotation placement.

Is my PDF uploaded to a third-party service?

No. All editing runs on PQ PDF's own servers using PyMuPDF. Your file is processed in an isolated temporary directory and deleted immediately after you download the result. No data is sent to any third-party service.

Can I create a PDF from scratch?

Yes. Use the "Create New Blank PDF" button to start with an empty document. You can set the page size (A4, Letter, A3, Legal, or custom), add as many pages as you need, and use any of the 20 annotation tools to build the document.
