Fill in a PDF form without printing it: type your details, tick the boxes, add a photo or signature, and cover mistakes with white-out, right in your browser.

How to use it

  1. Tap “Select PDF” and choose your file. The first page opens.
  2. Tap Text, Tick, White-out or Image. It appears on the page you're looking at.
  3. Drag it into place and drag the round handle to resize. Type your text and pick size and colour in the box under the page.
  4. Use the arrows above the page to go to other pages and add more.
  5. Tap “Save PDF”, then “Download PDF”.

What you can add

ButtonUse it for
TextName, address, dates, answers. Several lines, any size, in black, blue or red
Tick ✓Check boxes such as Yes/No, category or “I agree”
White-outCovering a wrong entry or a blank you don't need, so you can write over it
ImageA photo, a stamp or a signature. “Remove” paper background keeps only the ink of a signature photo

Everything you add can be moved, resized or deleted until you save, and “Put on every page” copies an item (a reference number, your initials) onto every page.

Typing in Hindi and other languages

Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu and other scripts all work: type them with your phone's keyboard or paste them in. English text goes into the PDF as real text you can select and search. Text in other scripts is added as a high-resolution picture of the words, because the font built into every PDF reader has only English letters. It prints just as sharply, but it can't be selected or searched. Need to type Hindi from an English keyboard? Use Hindi Typing and paste the result.

White-out covers, it doesn't delete

A white-out box hides what's under it when the PDF is viewed or printed, like correction tape on paper. The original words are still inside the file, so someone could select, copy or search them. Use it to tidy up a form, not to hide account numbers, passwords or other private details.

What this tool doesn't do

  • It can't change or delete the words already in the PDF. Cover them with white-out and type the new text on top.
  • It doesn't fill a PDF's own fill-in boxes (interactive form fields). Your text is drawn on the page itself, which works for any PDF, including scanned forms.

Good for

  • Government and scholarship forms published as PDFs, and affidavit or declaration formats
  • Bank forms: KYC update, nomination, address change
  • Job and admission application forms that must be filled in and emailed back
  • Adding a reference number, date or note to a letter

Frequently asked questions

How do I fill in a PDF form on my phone?

Select the PDF, tap “Text”, type your answer in the box under the page and drag the text onto the line. Use “Tick” for check boxes. When every page is done, tap “Save PDF” and download it.

Can I type in Hindi?

Yes. Type in Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Tamil or any language your phone's keyboard supports. English text is added as real, selectable text; text in other scripts is added as a sharp picture of the text, because the PDF's built-in font only has English letters. It looks the same on screen and in print.

Can I change text that's already in the PDF?

Not directly. Cover the old words with White-out and type the new text on top. White-out only hides what's underneath: the covered text is still in the file and can be copied, so don't use it to hide private details.

Will the rest of my PDF change?

No. Your additions are drawn on top of the original pages, so the existing text stays selectable and links keep working. Only password-protected or copy-restricted PDFs are saved as page images.

Can I add my photo or signature to the PDF?

Yes. Tap “Image” and choose a photo. For a signature or stamp photographed on paper, choose “Remove” under Paper background so only the ink is kept. To draw or type a signature, use Sign PDF.

Is my PDF uploaded?

No. The PDF is edited inside your browser and never leaves your phone or computer, which matters for forms with your address, Aadhaar or bank details.
