Key features

In-place text editing
A paragraph is selected and its text retyped. The closest matching typeface is applied: Arimo, Tinos, Caladea and Cousine share their character widths with Arial, Times New Roman, Cambria and Courier New.
Annotations
Highlight, underline, strikethrough, sticky note, text box, freehand drawing, rectangle, ellipse, line, arrow, and stamps such as APPROVED, DRAFT and CONFIDENTIAL. Replies and a resolved state are supported; comments are written as standard PDF annotations.
Form filling and signatures
Text, checkbox, radio, list and signature fields can be filled; text, ✓, ✗, dots and dates can be placed anywhere. Signatures can be drawn with a mouse, pen or finger, typed, or inserted as an image; up to six are retained in the current browser only.
Page management
Pages can be reordered by dragging, rotated, deleted and duplicated; blank pages or pages from another PDF can be inserted; pages can be extracted to a new file.
Protection and redaction
Open password and print, copy and modification permissions (AES-256, qpdf). Redaction is permanent: the page is converted into an image so that the underlying content is removed. Title, author and XMP metadata can be removed.
Text recognition (OCR)
An invisible text layer is added to scanned pages, making them searchable and their text copyable. Turkish, English or both; optionally limited to pages without text.

Data processing and privacy

Paginel connects to no external service during operation. The OCR engine, language data and document typefaces are bundled with the application; saved signatures are stored only in the browser in use.
