Edit PDF text in the original font

blupdf lets you edit PDF text the way you edit a document: click a block, retype it, export. It reads the font, size, color and alignment of the block you clicked and renders your new text with the same properties - on digital PDFs and, after AI OCR, on scans. No white boxes, no font that almost matches, no rasterized pages.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Upload your PDF

    Drop a PDF, a scan or a photo. blupdf parses each page and, for image-only pages, runs AI OCR so every word becomes a block you can edit.

  2. Step 2

    Click the text you want to change

    Paragraphs, headings, table cells and labels are separate blocks. A thin outline shows the one you selected.

  3. Step 3

    Retype it

    Type your new text. The block keeps its font, size, color and alignment, and your text re-wraps inside the block's original box so neighbouring content stays put.

  4. Step 4

    Export

    Download a clean PDF. The new text is real, selectable text rendered in the matched font - the file stays searchable.

Why blupdf

  • Same font, same layout

    Embedded fonts are reused as-is; missing fonts get the closest match from blupdf's library. Line height, alignment and color carry over automatically.

  • Digital and scanned PDFs

    Exported PDFs are edited directly. Scans and photos go through AI OCR first, then behave like any other document.

  • No white boxes or blurry patches

    blupdf replaces the text instructions on the page instead of painting over them or rasterizing the page.

  • Searchable, clean export

    Everything you type is stored as text, so the exported PDF can be searched, indexed and copied.

  • Credits only for what you edit

    You pay per page prepared and per character rendered - 1,000 free credits cover real edits on real documents.
