How to create a PDF from scratch
Choose a page size
Select A4, Letter, A3, A5, Legal or a custom size in millimetres, and pick portrait or landscape. The blank page opens in your browser tab.
Add content
Use the toolbar to add text, images, shapes, highlights, tables and links. Drag and resize anything on the canvas.
Add more pages if needed
Click Add page in the toolbar to insert another blank page. Pages can be reordered, duplicated or deleted at any time.
Download the PDF
Click Save PDF to download your document. Nothing is sent to a server.
What you can add to your PDF
Text boxes
Add paragraphs, headings or labels in any of the built-in fonts. Set size, colour, weight, alignment and line spacing.
Images
Insert PNG or JPEG images and resize them freely on the canvas.
Shapes
Rectangles, ellipses, lines and arrows, with any fill and stroke colour.
Tables
Insert a grid with custom rows, columns and merged cells, then set colours and borders.
Links
Draw a clickable region that links to a web address or another page in the same document.
Multiple pages
Add as many pages as you need. Each can have its own background colour.
Frequently asked questions
How do I create a PDF from scratch?
Open this page, choose a page size and orientation, and the blank canvas appears. Add text, images and shapes using the toolbar, then click Save PDF to download.
Can I add multiple pages to the document?
Yes. Click Add page at any time to insert another blank page. You can also duplicate or delete pages from the page list.
What fonts are available?
The editor includes a set of built-in fonts that embed into the PDF: Helvetica, Times, Courier, and several others. Every character you type is saved with the font included.
Can I add an image to the PDF?
Yes. Click the image icon in the left toolbar or the bottom bar on mobile and choose a PNG or JPEG file. The image is placed on the canvas and you can move and resize it.
Will the PDF have a watermark?
No. The file you download is yours: your content, and nothing else.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Create PDF runs entirely in your browser: the file is opened and processed on your own device and is never sent to our server. More in the privacy policy.
Is Create PDF free to use?
