How to Add Text to a PDF With PDFLiner Document Writer Online

Our service lets you edit your PDF files in various ways with a set of tools that are intuitive and essential. PDF liner provides opportunities for working on your documents online, synchronizing the editing process with other users and acting independently of printers, scanners, and fax machines.

The basic instrument of any online editor is text. So let’s learn a bit more about this tool and how it works in PDFliner.

Step 1. ‘Add Text’ is one of the first icons you see on your dashboard after uploading the document meant for editing. It’s located in the upper left corner of your screen and has a big letter ‘T’ on it.

Step 2. After choosing it with a click, you’ll be able to set the cursor anywhere in the document and add some text there. This is especially useful when you need to add page numbers to your PDF.

Step 3. There is a cursor menu that lets you make quick edits: make the text bigger or smaller, move it across the document, and even delete it without a trace. If you accidentally deleted the text through that menu, don’t worry. It can easily be recovered with one click of a backup button that’s also situated in the upper left corner of your screen.

Step 4. Besides the cursor menu, there’s also a full text menu that appears in an additional dashboard section when you place the cursor in the document. In it, you can alternate the viewing scale of the document you’re working on, change the size and font of your text, change its style to bold or italic, underline and cross it, change its placing on a page and insert a link into it.

Step 5. To insert a hyperlink into your text, click on the icon in the formatting panel. In the pop-up window, add the link you need. To check if the link is correct, click on the “Test” button. To add a hyperlink after the testing, click “Save”.

Step 6. If you want to cancel all the changes that have been made to the document, click on the arrow right below the dashboard. 

Step 7. After your text is edited and ready to be downloaded, shared, or saved in our storage, click the ‘Done’ button in the upper right corner of your screen. You’ll be redirected to your profile page right away with a ready-edited document stored in your archive.
