How to edit and modify the content of a PDF file?

php editor Banana will introduce to you today how to edit and modify the content of PDF files. PDF files are often viewed as read-only files, but they can actually be edited with a few tools and techniques. Whether you're adding text, changing images, or adjusting the layout, it's easy to do with the right methods. Let's explore together how to edit and modify PDF files to make the file content more perfect!

PDF files come in two formats, one is scanned or photo-converted PDF, which is actually a picture and the text cannot be edited directly. If you need to edit, you can extract the text through the text recognizer and then edit it.

Another format is PDF converted from electronic documents. It may be essentially a Word, Excel or PPT file, so you can use a PDF editor to edit the content directly on it.

You can also convert PDF files into other formats, such as Word or txt format, and then edit them. After all, editing Word documents is much more convenient than editing PDF files.

Just open the PDF file, click the [File] option above, then click [Save As], and then select the save path on the right.

.

In the newly pop-up dialog box, click [Save as type], then select the format type to be converted. After clicking [OK], the PDF will be converted to other formats and can be edited.

.

There is another situation. If the second format has been determined, that is, the electronic document is converted to PDF, it still cannot be edited using the editor, nor can it be converted to other formats. Then you need to consider whether the PDF has been set with a restricted password. The file is protected and cannot be edited at will.

This restriction can be removed. If you know the restriction password, you can open the PDF file, click [Protect] above, and then click Remove Security Settings in the list under [Secure Document].

(Note: The operation of different editors will be different)

.

Then, enter the originally set password in the pop-up dialog box, and click [OK]. The restricted protection of the PDF file will be removed, and it can be edited.

If you don’t know the restriction password, we can use other tools to remove PDF restrictions without a password.

Similar tools such as Pepsi Niu PDF Password Recovery Tool, select the [Unrestriction] module in the tool, and then import the PDF file.

The PDF file after the restriction is lifted will be saved as a new file. Click [Go to View] to open the folder to see it.
