What it does

KBros PDF Editor in a minute

KBros PDF Editor opens any PDF in a clean window with page thumbnails. Highlight, underline or strike out text, add notes, text boxes, shapes, arrows, freehand drawings and stamps, and fill in the PDF's own form fields. Everything you add is saved in the file, so it shows in any PDF reader.

The Pages view organises the document: insert blank pages or pages from another PDF or a picture, delete, rotate, move, duplicate, extract and replace them. Combine several PDFs and pictures into one PDF, with a bookmark for each file, and save any page as a picture. Every change can be undone.

  • Comments that show everywhere

    Highlights, notes, text boxes, shapes, arrows, drawings and stamps, saved in the PDF.

  • Fill in forms

    Type into a PDF's own fields and tick its boxes; what you type is saved with the file.

  • Organise pages

    Insert, delete, rotate, move, duplicate, extract and replace pages from the thumbnails.

  • Combine files

    PDFs and pictures into one PDF, with a bookmark for each file.

  • Undo anything

    Every change is its own step, so Undo always takes you back.

  • Private and small

    Everything happens on your computer. Nothing is uploaded, and the Mac download is under 2 MB.
