Frequently asked questions

Does PDFAmend work on Chromebook without installing anything?
Yes. Open Chrome on your Chromebook and go to pdfamend.com. No extension, no Android app, no Linux install needed. It runs entirely in the browser.
Is there a free PDF editor for Chromebook?
PDFAmend is free to edit. You pay $2.99 only when you download the finished PDF — much cheaper than a monthly subscription. For truly free editing with no download needed, use the free preview mode.
Can I edit PDFs on a school Chromebook?
PDFAmend runs in any Chrome browser. If Chrome Web Store extensions are restricted by your school, PDFAmend still works because it is a website, not an extension.
How does it compare to Google Docs PDF editing?
Google Docs can convert a PDF to a Google Doc, but the formatting often breaks. PDFAmend edits the original PDF text in place — no conversion, no reformatting.
Where does the downloaded PDF save on Chromebook?
The PDF saves to your Chromebook's Downloads folder, accessible through the Files app. You can then attach it to an email or upload it anywhere.
