Testimonials

I just had to take a moment to say thank-you to whoever decided to make such a powerful PDF software available for FREE! I am a retired entrepreneur who lost everything in my entrepreneurial business just prior to getting sick and having to retire. But I needed a PDF editor which was capable of annotations to track my monthly bank, credit card, etc. statements and did not want to spend $50/year on doing that task. Indeed, I almost signed up for a couple but happened across PDF-Exchange and what a blessing that is for this old guy on SSA!

Indeed, it's the best PDF editor I have ever seen! It's so simple, intuitive, straight-forward and very capable! I am so pleased to be able to use this software, I just had to thank someone! So, thank you so much! I will be smiling every month as I annotate my monthly statements!

All researchers, academics and students should have this smart products because of it has any feature you want for your carrier.

This editor is so rich in features that it would almost be easier to say what it can't do than describe what it can do.

It has facilities that simply don't exist in many other well-known mainstream editors. The tools available for processing PDF bookmarks are a case in point. Many people who open a PDF probably aren't even aware of PDF bookmarks, or what they are for. Not everyone would want to do anything with them. But for those who do, the PDF-Xchange Editor Plus allows you to do things with bookmarks that you would never have thought were possible.

You can add prefixes and suffixes to all bookmarks’ titles. You can change the case of all bookmarks’ titles in one fell swoop, or individually one by one. You can sort bookmarks in alphabetical order, or in order of the page they refer to.

The user interface is another case in point. A lot of thought has clearly gone into it to make it as intuitive as possible, while at the same time providing a huge variety of options. It has so many tools built into it for controlling things like the zoom factor on page thumbnails, or the page display arrangements, that outstrip what other editors can do.

You can define your own keyboard shortcuts for the features you use the most, if you don't like the default shortcuts.
Find and replace searches the text of bookmarks’ titles, as well as the main text of the PDF file. The inbuilt OCR mechanism in PDF-Xchange Editor Plus comes from the well-reputed Abbyy FineReader stable.

There is so much to discover and use in this editor, I can't do justice to it all without writing a book about it. If it's not already obvious, I thoroughly recommend the PDF-Xchange Editor Plus to anyone who works seriously with PDFs.

Last but not least, I very much like the pricing model, which does not follow the modern practice of imprisoning you into a subscription, but uses a one-off purchase price scheme instead. For what this editor offers, the price is extremely reasonable.

I'm pleased to give PDF-XChange Editor a 5-star rating. It's an excellent tool that meets all my needs perfectly. The interface is user-friendly, and the features are exactly what I was looking for. I have no dislikes about the product—it's been a great experience so far.

This software is AMAZING.
When I think: "ow, I would need this feature"
I look for it and it's already there, in an easy, robust and intuitive way.
PDF-XChange Editor is my favourite tool not only for viewing and editing PDFs but it soon became THE tool for merging, cropping and printing.
It's worth every cent that I paid it for.

I have been using PDF-xchange for a year or so, and I am having superb service. In my trade, documentation plays a key role in my day-to-day work. Pdf-xchange enabled me to accomplish editing, composing, and publishing much easier.

PDF-XChange Editor free version is great, which I used for years because I had no need for the advance features. At least that was what I thought, until I watched a youtube video of a teacher explaining how he used it to give lessons etc, then the penny dropped and my eyes were opened to the real power of PDF-XChange Editor. At that time I was involved in a court case and decided to input all the documented evidence, which was presented to me, both in hard copy and pdf's by subject, I learnt how to merge all the pdf's into one PDF within PDF-XChange Editor. Then I set about using links and bookmarks to enable me to move around all the evidence from bookmark to bookmark from within the text to prove my arguments, without loosing a heartbeat. It was fast, efficient and a delight to use! It was well worth the money and I wished that I had purchased it sooner! The one-off payment model, I liked very much and made it a "No Brainer" purchase for me. Using the PDF-XChange Editor software, felt very solid and in use, it was very workman like, functions worked as expected. I have only used a fraction of its features, however the functions and features I did use were really great!
Suggested improvements: Since I used links a lot, I found the following: 1) The word/phrase selected to appear as a link, with a style of Blue and underlined had to be set for every link separately within the properties and I would have very much liked to set up a style profile so that it is done in one click. 2) The link for that word/phrase was a transparent mask overlay, which is fine provided you never moved it. For example I had a list of content in a certain order and I wanted to change that order, i had to move each line of text, then move the correct link overlay mask separately. I would have liked a feature to lock the text and the link mask together so that I could move them together. This would have saved me heaps of time! 3) In the court case mentioned earlier I used an Android OS Tablet and as you know PDF-XChange Editor only works on a Windows OS. So I had to use an Android PDF reader and as a result lost the bookmark functionality but still had the link feature working (Thank goodness)! Is there a software recommendation for Android that is more compatible with PDF-XChange Editor features or are you working on an android version! 4) Last but not least, I am dyslexic, so a comprehensive video tutorial channel with each video, no longer than 5 minutes duration, focused and to the point would be my dream. Overall I would recommend PDF-XChange Editor software without hesitation. Thank you for such a professional fully features PDF software.

I am responsible for handling a large number of piping drawings in a power plant construction project. Your products are reliable partners that help you accomplish enormous amounts of work quickly and accurately.

I'm a 54-year-old man who left behind years of tech jobs to pursue my calling of being a professional counselor. I am currently in grad school and have lots of reading - both textbooks and articles. Many of these are in PDF format.

I have used the free version of PDF-XChange for years, but never really dug into the features until I started grad school. Once I did, I quickly paid for a 3-year license. PDF-XChange is so powerful and intuitively laid out, and has helped me immensely.

The ability to add/edit/rearrange bookmarks is fantastic. Simply highlighting a document is often not enough. I want to have a structure so I can quickly reference a document. Sometimes a PDF (like a textbook) will already have a Bookmarks structure. But with PDF-XChange, I can add multiple layers deep as I see fit. This makes studying and referencing so much easier.

The Search function is extremely useful. Having the results pain visible, grouped by page number, I can quickly zero in on results from only a specific chapter or section. I also utilize PDF-XChange Editor's Session grouping function extensively. Often, a module for the week might contain as many as 10 or more PDF articles I need to read and reference. I can open them up once, and save the session for that module, and can then quickly access all the articles quickly and easily.

PDF-XChange is deeply powerful, and sometimes the options are a bit overwhelming. But after a little research, I find that everything is laid out and accessed pretty intuitively. And the customizations are near endless. I have quick key shortcuts for highlighting text for example, which I used daily. Highlighting something while I'm reading now happens so fast, it doesn't interrupt the flow of reading.

I am so grateful for PDF-XChange Editor. It has become an invaluable tool for my graduate program. My only regret is not digging deeper into all it's power and functionality earlier. It is truly an excellent piece of software. Highly recommended.

Old man here and have used many different pdf software over the years and this is by far my favorite. Very simple, fast and with OCR at a very respectable price.

Well done guys! Well done!
