Which tool changes what
Add Text, Annotate, Watermark, Add Logo, signatures, page numbers, headers and footers add new content on top of the page; they do not change or remove existing text. Only Redact PDF removes content: it deletes the text and image pixels under the areas you mark.
Crop PDF changes the visible area but keeps the content outside it in the file. Rotate and Organize change the page order or direction without changing page content. Edit PDF Metadata changes the document properties shown by PDF readers.

- Open your PDF in that tool and download the edited copy.
Try this example

Before you start: This page is a guide to the tools and does not edit files itself. For private details, use redact rather than covering text with a shape.
