Question 1

Why can't I edit the text in my PDF?

Accepted Answer

The most common reason why you can't edit text in your PDF is because you have a scanned PDF file.

Scanned PDFs are treated as images, meaning that you can’t select or edit text within the file without OCR technology.

If you’re looking to overcome these limitations, consider using Xodo tools. First, use the online OCR converter to turn your scanned, non-editable PDF into a searchable PDF. Then, easily edit and update PDF text directly in your browser with our PDF Text Editor.

Question 4

How can I edit text in a scanned PDF file?

Accepted Answer

To edit text in a scanned PDF file, you first need to make the document editable with the help of Xodo’s OCR converter. Optical Character Recognition inside Xodo will extract text from your scanned PDF and turn it into a PDF you can then update and modify.

Once the OCR processing is done, you can use the online PDF Text Editor to make necessary text changes and update your now editable PDF. Remember to download the edited file to your device when you are done.
