Free tools cover viewing, annotating, filling existing forms and reordering pages perfectly well.
Free true text editing with correct font matching is rare, because the font work is the expensive part — most free tools substitute the typeface or watermark the export.
PDFfont edits PDF text in the document's own embedded font — no white cover boxes.
