PDF (Portable Document Format) is one of the most widely used document formats that ensure safety and information integrity on any platform. For example, a PDF you create will have the same appearance on Linux, Windows, and Android – everywhere. That’s why PDF is widely used. Moreover, PDF is regarded as one of the safest file types. That’s why using PDF is the best way to submit your CV or send your story to others.
After creating PDF, you might need to edit it. You can do it either by editing the source, but how about editing other PDFs? There are many PDF editors you can find out on the internet where most of them are paid software. There are several free tools as well to help you out! Let’s check out the best free PDF editors for everyone.

The advantage of using Inkscape is, you won’t need any additional tool to edit, design and create SVG, EPS, and PNG etc. Despite being free, the tool is quite comparable to Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW etc.

It allows you edit existing texts, pictures and everything else. You can load PDF from other websites, too. There’s a signature tool as well. Add/remove, edit pages as much as you like until the PDF is fully fixed.
If you like to work offline, there’s also Sejda Desktop. However, the free edition has some limitations like page limit (200 pages max), file size (50MB max) or number of PDFs to edit (3 PDFs per hour). But I believe the free edition is more than enough for everyday usage.
Maybe you didn’t expect it, but LibreOffice is one of the most powerful office suites in the market that can edit, customize and do everything else with a PDF file. It’s an offline software, of course. LibreOffice is open-source, free of cost and available on all platforms – Windows, Linux, and MacOS – everywhere.
Start LibreOffice Writer, open the PDF file and edit as much as you like. Then, save the file normally. LibreOffice is full of powerful toolkits to help you customize and transform the PDF into your dream document.
