Edit a scanned PDF. Free, no signup.
A scanned PDF is just a picture — normally you can't edit it. AllDocs runs OCR on import so the words become editable text right on the page. Fix a name, a date, a value, then download it back as a PDF.
Scan becomes editable text
OCR recognises the words so you can click and retype them — no retyping the whole document.
Only your edits change
Everything you don't touch stays exactly as the original scan; edited words are re-drawn cleanly in place.

Frequently asked
How do I edit text in a scanned PDF?
Import it — AllDocs OCRs the scan automatically. Click any word to edit it, then download. No account, no email, no watermark. Your file is processed in your browser session and auto-deleted within 24 hours — and we never train on your documents.
Will it change parts I didn't edit?
No. Only the runs you actually change are re-rendered; the rest of the page is the untouched scan.
Is OCR perfect?
OCR is very good but not flawless on faint or stylised text — you can fix any misread by editing the text directly.
