Now there is a far easier way to edit scanned documents. You can simply use pdfFiller as a scanned document editor!

To get started, you should upload a scanned form to your account or open a document that’s already there. When you open the document, you will see the “Edit” toolbar along the top like this:

Click the black square to change the color of your text box, and click the tree icons to resize the text. Click the “Signature” or “Picture” button to sign your document or insert an image. You can also edit the document by highlighting, blacking out or erasing any text by or image by clicking the respective button in the “Edit” tab.
