Whether it’s an application or contract, Loio lets you overlay text directly onto a PDF. No file conversions, no app-switching—just upload and start typing.
How to insert and position text
Open your document in the editor and follow these steps:
Place text: Select Your name (You) for editing, then Text from the left-hand toolbar, click anywhere on the document to create a text box, and start typing.
Move & resize: Adjust text positioning by dragging its box. Resize by pulling the corner anchor points.
How to customize text
When a text box is selected, use the top action panel to style your content:
Change the font and size, control alignment, or apply bold, italic, and underline formatting.
Adjust the text opacity and modify text or fill colors.
Click the trash bin icon to remove a text box.
You can also use the floating menu to edit, duplicate, or delete text.
If a document contains fillable fields (filling out a form)
If your PDF has interactive boxes to input text (like tax forms), simply click a field and start typing.
How to insert a date
Place a date box: Select Date in the left-hand toolbar and drop the date field anywhere on a document.
Fill out the box: Click Add date in the floating menu, select the current date, and confirm with Done.
Reposition: Click and drag the date box to your desired location.
How to customize a date
Change date: Double-click the date box to manually type the correct month, day, or year; or use the Change date option in the floating menu to select another date.
Clear date: Use the Clear option in the floating menu to remove the date from the box.
Change date format: Select from multiple date formats using the Date format dropdown.
Adjust font size: Use the Font size selector to make the date bigger or smaller.
Next step: Signing
After you’ve added your name, date, and other information using Loio’s editing tools, you can quickly sign and finalize a document to make it legally binding, then send it for signatures to others.
