Edit, annotate, sign and redact PDFs without them ever leaving your Mac. No account, no uploads, and no network access at all.
Pagefort is a fast, private PDF editor for the Mac. Read, mark up, fill in, sign, redact and organize your PDFs, and they never leave your Mac. Pagefort has no network access at all: no account, no uploads, no tracking.
READ
• Smooth scrolling, even through documents thousands of pages long
• Search, select and copy text; follow links and the outline
• Page thumbnails in the sidebar
MARK UP
• Highlight, underline, strike out or squiggle text
• Notes, text boxes, stamps, pen and pencil drawing, and an eraser
• Lines, arrows, rectangles, ovals and polygons
• Colors, line widths, fonts and opacity in the inspector
• Saved as standard PDF annotations, so other PDF apps show them too
FILL IN AND SIGN
• Fill in PDF forms: text fields, checkboxes, lists and choices
• Create your signature by typing, drawing or importing a picture, and place it anywhere
• Flatten annotations or form fields when a document is final
Signatures in Pagefort are visual signatures, not certificate-based digital signatures.
REDACT FOR REAL
• Mark text, areas or every search result, then apply
• Text, pictures and drawings under the marks are removed from the file, not just covered
• Pagefort checks the saved file for the removed text
• Remove hidden data: metadata, scripts, attachments, thumbnails and annotation authors
SCANS
• Recognize text in scanned pages, entirely on your Mac
• Then search, select and copy it like any other text
PAGES
• Reorder, rotate, insert, duplicate, delete and crop pages
• Combine files into one PDF, extract pages or split a document
• Export pages as images, or a document's text
EDIT
• Change existing text, move or delete objects, and replace images
PROTECT
• Add a password with AES-256 encryption, or remove one you know
• Open password-protected PDFs
BUILT TO KEEP YOUR DOCUMENTS SAFE
• PDFs are read in a separate, sandboxed process with no file or network access of its own
• Crash recovery keeps your unsaved changes
• No account, no analytics, no ads
Requires macOS 14 or later on a Mac with Apple silicon.
