Why pdfspree
Free PDF editor. Local PDF signer. Real fillable export.
Every other PDF tool wants an account and your file on their server. Drop a PDF here, fill it, sign it, and download — your file never leaves your browser.
Your PDF never uploads
Open it, fill it, sign it, export it — entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server. No account, no email handover, no marketing footprint. The file goes exactly one place: back to your downloads folder.
Form from PDF, detected automatically
Drop a fillable PDF and the editor reads the existing form fields — text, checkboxes, radios, dropdowns, and their options — so you don't redo what's already in the file. Then add your own fields wherever the form is missing them.
Sign a PDF online — no signup
Draw, type, or upload your signature. Curated script fonts so the typed version looks like a signature, not a label. Drop the signature on the page and download. No email collected, no link to wait for, no friction.
Export as a real fillable PDF
Save as an AcroForm-compatible PDF that opens fillable in Adobe Reader, Preview, or any browser — not a flattened image, not a paywalled download. The original PDF with your new fields written in, ready to send.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I fill out and sign a PDF without uploading it?+
Drop the PDF on the pdfspree editor. The page opens locally in your browser — pdfjs renders it, pdf-lib edits it, nothing uploads. Fill out text, date, checkbox, radio, and dropdown fields. Sign by drawing, typing, or uploading a signature image. Export the result as a fillable PDF and you're done.
Is this PDF editor really free?+
Yes. No account, no card, no email asked. We don't store your file, we don't track its contents, and we don't email you afterwards. The editor is free to use as much as you want.
Does my PDF stay on my device?+
Yes. Every step — opening, field detection, filling, signing, exporting — runs in your browser using pdfjs and pdf-lib. The file never touches a server. Nothing to log because nothing leaves the page.
Can I sign a PDF online without an account?+
Yes. The Sign tool gives three options: draw your signature with mouse or touch, type it in a curated script font, or upload an image of an existing signature. The signature gets embedded into the PDF on export. No signup, no email link, no friction.
How does the editor detect existing form fields?+
If you drop a fillable PDF (an AcroForm), pdfspree reads its fields automatically — text inputs, checkboxes, radio buttons, dropdowns and their options — and shows them on the page ready to fill. You don't redraw what's already there. Add new fields wherever the form is missing them.
Will the fillable PDF I export still work in Adobe Reader?+
Yes. The export writes real AcroForm widgets, the same format Adobe Reader, Preview, Foxit, and every major reader recognize. The downloaded PDF stays fillable — you or anyone you send it to can keep filling, save, print, or sign again.
