About Edit PDF

Tips

Things worth knowing.

Compress AFTER editing, not before — re-encoding twice degrades quality.

Split first if you only need to share a few pages; merging back later is rarely needed.

Watermark before flattening — flattened PDFs can't be un-watermarked easily.

Remove blank pages from scans to keep file size and page counts honest.
