Does this tool support Chinese or other non-Latin text?

No. Only standard PDF fonts (Helvetica, Times, Courier) are available, which support English and basic Latin characters.

Is the original PDF content preserved?

Yes. Editing uses an overlay approach β€” new content is placed on top. The original PDF data remains underneath.

Will edited text match the original font exactly?

Not always. Edits use standard PDF fonts which may differ from the original document's fonts in size and style.

Yes. You can undo changes before exporting. Once the PDF is exported, changes are permanent.

What image formats can I add to the PDF?

You can add PNG and JPEG images. PNG is recommended for logos or images that need transparent backgrounds.
