To edit a PDF document on your iPad, you will need to find and download a suitable App from the Apple App Store - such as Readlle PDF Expert (there are others).


Alternatively, in some instances, you can use the iPadOS “markup” features - although you should understand the fundamental difference between “editing a PDF” and applying markup “to a PDF”.


I recommend that you take a good look at the iPad User Guides - downloadable to your iPad (for free) within the Apple Books Store. This will give you a good insight into the markup features. Alternatively, simply Google “iPadOS markup”; there are many good explanations to be found on the web.
