Editrix · PDF editor for Android

A PDF editor that edits the actual PDF.

Retype a sentence, resize a photo, fill in a form, or black out a paragraph for good. It happens to the real file, on your phone, and nothing gets uploaded anywhere.

Editing

Click on a word. Change the word.

Most "PDF editors" on a phone are really just annotation tools — they can draw a box over a typo, not fix it. Editrix opens the actual text object on the page and lets you retype it, in the original font where it can find one, at the original size.

The same goes for images: drag to resize, move, swap one photo for another, or pull it off the page entirely. It's editing the page itself, not layering something new on top of it.

Forms & OCR

Fill in forms. Build new ones. Read scanned pages.

Open a PDF form and the checkboxes, radio buttons, and text fields actually work — fill them in and save, the same file, ready to send back. If the form doesn't have real fields yet, the Form Builder lets you drop new ones onto any PDF.

For scanned pages, Editrix runs on-device OCR and draws real, selectable text back onto the page — not an invisible search layer sitting behind a picture. Choose to reflow it onto a clean page or keep it positioned exactly where it was scanned.

Converters

Word, PowerPoint, and Excel files go in. A real PDF comes out.

Bold stays bold, colors stay colors, tables stay tables. Editrix reads a document's actual formatting — per-run styling, table borders and shading, bullet lists, embedded images and shapes — rather than flattening everything to plain text and hoping for the best.

It also converts PDFs back to Word, scans paper documents straight into a PDF with automatic edge detection, and turns a folder of photos into one file.

More in the same file

Everything else you'd expect from an editor, not a viewer.

Redaction that actually redacts

Most "redaction" tools just paint a black rectangle over the text and call it done — the words are still sitting underneath. Editrix removes the text itself from the page, so what's covered is actually gone.

Annotations that stick

Highlights, underlines, strikeouts, freehand ink, shapes, sticky notes, stamps, and callout text boxes — all saved into the file itself, readable in any other PDF app afterward.

Sign with your phone's own keystore

Digital signatures are generated and held in Android's hardware-backed keystore, not emailed off to a signing service.

Password protection & permissions

Lock a PDF with a password, or leave it open but restrict printing and copying — AES-256 encryption either way.

PDF/A export

Convert to the PDF/A archival format when a document needs to stay readable for the long haul, not just today's PDF reader.

Merge, reorder, extract, rotate

Combine files, pull specific pages into their own document, drag pages into a new order, or fix a sideways scan — without leaving the app.

No account. No cloud. Ads, though.

Your file stays on your phone. That's not a slogan, it's the architecture.

Editrix has no server. Every edit — text, images, forms, redaction, signatures — runs on the device you're holding, which means there's nothing to upload and nothing to wait on.

The app is free and pays for itself through ads, with a one-time purchase if you'd rather not see them. Either way, your documents were never part of that arrangement.

Common questions

A few things people ask first

Do I need an account to use Editrix?+
No. Open a file and start editing — there's no sign-up screen anywhere in the app.
Where do my files actually go?+
Nowhere but your device's own storage. Editrix has no server to send them to.
Why does the app show ads?+
It's how a free app with no account and no subscription stays free. A one-time in-app purchase removes them if you'd rather not see any.
Does it work without an internet connection?+
Yes — editing, converting, OCR, and everything else run entirely on-device.

Your next PDF edit is one download away.
