Testimonials

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!

I absolutely love this program. I use PDFs all day every day, and I've tried all and spent a lot of time with Foxit, my previous favorite, as well as Nitro PDF. PDF-XCHANGE blows them away. PDF-XCHANGE is the only full-featured PDF software offered with a reasonably-priced perpetual license. Not only that, it is endlessly configurable. You should definitely spend some time going through the settings to discover all of its capabilities. Unless you are using certain documents that, because of embedded scripts, require Adobe Acrobat, I can't imagine anything you might want to do with PDFs that you cannot do with PDF-XCHANGE. As a quick example, i use a lot of desktop automation using AutoHotKey, and in order to manage bookmarks, I need to be able to enter bookmark edit mode using just the keyboard (no mouse). Aside from PDF-XCHANGE, Foxit is the only other Adobe-alternative I have used that does not require a mouse click to enter edit mode. This is just one example of how PDF-XCHANGE does things the right way. It has so many configuration settings -- more than any other PDF program I've used -- that you should be able to work with it the way you want to work with it, instead of just conforming your workflow to the software. PDF-XCHANGE saves you time and clicks, once you have it set up the way you want.

Très bel outil que j'utilise depuis plusieurs années désormais, qui me sauve beaucoup de temps au quotidien et agréable à utiliser. Également une très belle dynamique d'amélioration continue très appréciée ! Continuez ainsi !

What I like the MOST is that I was able to purchase a perpetual license, at an affordable price. As for the product itself, it has everything I need and more. I'm VERY satisfied!

It has more features than Adobe, scans better than the original scanner drivers and has such a great performance.
I can totally recommend it.

This is a wonderful tool! Before I found PDF-XChange Editor, I unfortunately referred to it as an “Acrobat alternative.” It’s truly not. It stands on its own and has more features that I would not have expected. It’s very responsive and straightforward and does a great job. Would I recommend it? You bet!

I like that PDF-XChange is meticulous in both reading and writing pdfs. I like the messages about errors in others' pdfs that can be fixed by PDF-X. I haven't plumbed the depths of the app yet - there is a lot to learn - but it has been easy to use some special features, e.g. converting a pdf into a spreadsheet, and the results have been surprisingly good.
