What is Free PDF Editor?

Free PDF Editor by Techrex is a privacy-first, client-side PDF editor that runs in your browser. Edit, annotate, merge/split, compress to target sizes, OCR scanned PDFs, and convert files—no signup, no watermark.

Free PDF Editor by Techrex (formerly PDFFreeEditor) is a privacy-first PDF editor and converter that works entirely in your browser (client-side). Start instantly with no account required, edit your document, and download clean results with no watermark.

One of very few Pdf editors which actually edits/ replace text instead of just allowing to add text or placing a layout in replace of deletion. Actual and Real text Editing is supported by PdfFreeEditor.com.

It includes practical PDF editing and markup tools: type on PDF / add text, highlight text, draw/mark up pages, and annotate documents. You can also add images/photos and place a logo into a PDF for simple branding. For page management, it supports merge PDF, split PDF (including common workflows like split in half or split by size), extract pages, and delete/remove pages.

Compression is built for real-world upload limits. Compress PDFs for email attachments, WhatsApp sharing, and portal uploads, including target-size options such as compress to 100KB, 200KB, 300KB, 500KB, 1MB, 2MB, 5MB, and 10MB. It also supports compressing scanned PDFs, which are often much larger than normal documents.

OCR features help with scanned or image-only PDFs: detect whether a PDF is scanned, run OCR to make it searchable (Ctrl+F), enable copy/paste text, and improve conversion accuracy. Multilingual OCR workflows are available (e.g., French, German, Spanish).

The conversion suite supports PDF ? Word, PDF ? Excel, PDF ? PPTX, image ? PDF, HTML ? PDF, PDF ? text, and image-to-text (JPG/PNG/photo/screenshot).

Best for: users who want a free online PDF editor without upload-heavy workflows, accounts, or watermarks—especially for compression to strict size limits, scanned PDF OCR, and quick conversions.
