Frequently Asked Questions

Can I select and copy text from the original PDF file? Yes! The PDF Lab renders a native PDF.js text layer over the canvas so you can highlight, select, and copy original PDF text.

Can I move or delete elements after adding them? Yes. Switch to Select & Move Mode (👆) to drag text boxes, stamps, and images or delete them with the 🗑️ button or Delete key.
