What is Datoden PDF?

Datoden PDF is a online PDF editor that works in your browser on computer, tablet and mobile. You can edit text in a PDF, fill in and sign PDF documents, edit scanned PDFs searchable with OCR and merge, rotate and delete pages – everything in one place.

Unlike many other PDF services, your file is processed entirely in the browser. It is never sent to any server, so you can safely edit contracts, invoices, certificates and other documents with personal data.

Features in Datoden PDF

Everything you need to edit, sign and arrange PDF files.

Edit existing text

Click a text line and type. Size, bold and font – for example Arial, Calibri, Times New Roman or Cambria – follow the original.

Read text with OCR

Make scanned pages searchable and copyable. The text is recognised in Swedish and English and can then be edited.

Sign PDF

Draw your signature with the mouse, your finger or a pen and place it where it should go – or insert an image of the signature.

Text, images and shapes

Write new text, insert logos and images, highlight with a highlighter pen, cover details or draw rectangles, arrows, ticks and crosses.

Merge and arrange pages

Add more PDF files or images, drag the pages into the right order, rotate, duplicate or delete pages and save selected pages as a new PDF.

Page numbers and watermark

Add page numbers, a header and a footer with the date or file name, and mark the document with for example DRAFT or COPY.

Find and replace

Replace a name, a date or an amount in the whole document at once – even in text read with OCR.

Save as image or text

Save pages as PNG or JPG in high resolution, or extract all the text in the document as a text file.
