Our PDF Reader: Simplicity Perfected

Our online PDF viewer works just like downloadable software like Adobe Acrobat Reader, Foxit PDF Reader, or Nitro Reader. You can scroll through pages, search for specific words within the text, highlight text passages that you'd like to remember, and use a variety of advanced features. Our reader also acts as a PDF editor and allows you to easily edit, annotate PDFs, and add digital signatures to PDF files, Word documents, and PowerPoint presentations.

Plus, we offer unmatched accessibility, with compatibility across multiple platforms - be it Windows, Mac, or mobile devices. After you're done editing, you can convert your PDF file to other file types, compress your PDF file, or share it with a colleague or friend.
