I have been professionally using and editing PDF files for over 15 years in construction industry. 5-6 years ago, I have accidentally saw a colleague using PDF-XChange Editor, because he said it was freeware. At that time, I was using another corporate PDF tool, with a known brand. First impression, I remember how I was so shocked when my colleague opened 20 PDF drawing files so fast at the same time and still PDF tool didn't act slowly or hung up. I immediately requested freeware version of PDF-XChange Editor to be also installed on my computer. And so it all started.
Thumbnails, Layers, Contents, the ability to rename or delete files while viewing, comments and flattening comments, converting files, combining files, viewing files and commenting on those converted from drawing tools... I cannot believe how everything is working so smoothy with PDF-XChange Editor! Everyday, I'm saying that this is such a great tool and recommending colleagues to use it!
Unfortunately, my company is still using another corporate PDF tool, although I strongly recommended PDF-XChange Editor considering the ease of use and competitive license fees. But to tell you the truth, even though I'm a heavy user of this tool, when I checked your office from street view, it felt a little bit weird. Maybe putting some banners or more informative content to your location could increase the possibility for corporate purchases.
Thank you again for this great software.

Je commence à peine à utiliser PDF-XChange Editor que je l'apprécie grandement. Je l'ai utilisé principalement pour fusionner des PDF et y associer une table des matières. L'outil fonctionne très bien et le résultat est très satisfaisant. Il contient une multitude d'autres fonctionnalités que j'essaierai bientôt. Mon prochain projet est de bâtir des formulaires PDF. Je le recommande! Merci!

This is my second third party PDF tool after distancing from Adobe. Although at this stage, a couple of weeks of casual use is too soon to determine if any work flow concerns are related to deficiency or lack of familiarity.
The UI seems quite good. And the page rendering performance far exceeds the previous application I used.
So, I am very pleased with the product at this stage.

First of all, I really LOVE PDF-XChange Editor.
What would I add?
I would like to be able to highlight text by character, and not have it become a separate box where I can't select text later independently.
Related to the above, I would like to be able to change the color of a word within an already highlighted paragraph. Currently, it doesn't allow me to select text, making it impossible to highlight a portion in a different color.
Also, the highlighting doesn't match the line spacing. The color is offset. It's possible that this is because the OCR engine doesn't recognize spacing properly. (NOTE: I'm reading old texts in old languages. My "requirement" is quite specific and, I suppose, specialized.)

I can say that the PDF-XChange Editor has been a fantastic application, it's very easy and straight forward to use and it works so well, the software gives such a professional result in producing pdf documents that can be editable at various user levels, the software presents itself with clarity in the software interface menu's, and in a way that any functions are easily found and accessed. It is a very versatile application without being a steep learning curve, i have used the software and not had any need to access the help files or manuals although they appear to be very clear and comprehensive, this is a great product solution to the other well known pdf main competitor, but without the ultra high cost that the competitor requires. This is great for 'Non-Profit' organisations and charities as the PDF-XChange team can help with the prices there too. Thanks developers for creating this great software.

Love using PDF-Xchange for my work with marking-up pdfs. Great how customisable the software is. Only additional feature that I would like to see in the program is the ability to group comments - I understand this feature is currently in development though. Cheers

I appreciate that PDF-X is rather fast, nevertheless is loaded with functionalities.
I only found the PDF comparison rather crude.
The window is small and cannot be enlarged, nor it is automatically shown where the differences are, but you only stare at two images side by side like in a "Spot the difference" game. Quite useless, but could be a nice improvement..

I've been searching high and low for a comprehensive PDF program that offered me something close to the functionality of Adobe Acrobat, but without the ridiculous bloat. I tried anywhere from 3-5 different programs, all of which simply weren't good enough. But PDF-XChange Editor appears to be the one! I love it thus far. It doesn't have near the footprint as Acrobat. It's fast, clean, and has very similar functionality. As long as PDF-Xchange Editor stays with a small footprint, it will be enormously successful.

It's a very good product. it works beautifully, maybe interface could be simpler but maybe it's just me!
It's not easy to be used to a new software, I'm sure that one month from now interface will appear easy and friendly!
In any case PDF-XChange Editor has everything I need or you may need to deal with your pdf files.

I like PDF-Xchange but I miss a couple og functions:
- Like the distance or area dimension I miss a ANGLE dimension function, it schud be easy to do as no unit conversion is needed
- FLIP Horizontal and Vertical are grayed out on ex a square
- The search function are missing a corresponding REPLACE

What I enjoy about PDF-XChange Editor, the staff are patient- especially if you are not IT illiterate- you do not get this with PDF, PDF like Microsoft products are an impossability to communicate with, in otherwords you have to search and keep searching for a telephone/ e-mail. What else I enjoy about the product, the manual, it includes pictures as well as written format- I have not seen PDF do this or Microsoft come to that matter- admittedly I have not looked within the past 8 months with PDF or Microsoft if they have updated their presentation with regards to help.
With regards to PDF and XChange, the latter is certainly more flexible with its leafs- PDF has none, PDF you have had the market, learn from EXChange- in all departments, you had the monopoly, you sit rigid in the past, this is why, by the time this goes to press, XChange will or should be closely outselling their product, hence the 5 stars XChange Editor.

I have been using the free version of PDF-Xchange Editor for years and felt it was time to contribute. I purchased the Xchamge Pro, which includes the Tools and Editor with a couple of years of maintenance, which will keep me updated. I create many PDF reports and have refused to buy Acrobat because of the subscription that goes with it. PDF-Xchange Pro does everything I need, from creating forms to editing PDFs. A great piece of software that I highly recommend, especially if you are looking for an alternative to lengthy and expensive subscription plans. I hope that the good people at Tracker continue providing great software for another 27 years!

Hey. Im using this program long time ago in free version and i'm glad i bought full version. I'm using it to work. seriously i think this is one of the simplest and the best programs.
In my work and in my opinion it would be great if we have two more options.
- The option to draw lines of any thickness as it is, but with specified gaps between, for example, dashes.
- Drawing lines with curves instead of just using straight line segments.

As a 30-year user of Adobe Acrobat Pro, now I start using your PDF-XCHANGE Editor and I'm very happy with it.
The best issue about this change was the cost regarding the use of your software on the full version, as compared with AAPro.
My rating regarding the software will be a 5 stars for its possibilities.
If I notice any matters that may increase your software, I'll notify you.
Thanks

I did considerable research on PDF applications before selecting PDF-XChange. Both free ones and the ones you pay for. This program, by far, is the best choice of them all. I will admit the user interface is a bit intimidating but this program does so much, in terms of features, that this is to be expected. And I cannot find anything it does not do in relation to PDF editing and it does them all well. This is a great program and the cost is more than fair for what you get. The OCR by itself is worth the cost of admission. This is a well thought out program with a huge number of features. I know I made the correct choice.

Great product. When I upgraded to Windows 11, my old local copy of Acrobat X Pro no longer worked. It took some searching, but this is the best replacement I have found for it (installed on a local drive, not in the cloud; with a one-time payment rather than paying rent). It seems to do everything Acrobat X Pro did, newer and better.

I've just purchased PDF-XChange Editor for my first ever owned laptop, after using work supplied laptops for incidential private use for decades.
PDF-XChange has been my employer's .pdf document editor of choice for most requirements, and I realised I needed this functionality on my private computer. After trying a few freebie alternatives I realised yet again that "you get what you pay for" and settled on PDF-XChange as a good compromise of functionality and price.
But also because I've found it intuitive to use and that it does the things I want to do to .pdf docs easily, getting it right the first time, nearly always. Things like create from Office 365 programs, secure, shuffle pages, insert and delete pages, sign electronically, compress and probably other functions used occasionally that don't spring to mind.

Hi All,
I was a ex-Adobe Pro user.
So the migration was bit difficult but in order to get a cost effective alternative of the Adobe we bought PDF XChange Editor and the decision is going so smooth.
However, there are still some features missing in XChange Editor but with respect to its cost those are justified.

So much more to discover and am really enjoying the product and the general vibe of the forums.

Can't begin to express my appreciation for this product, being able to pay once for a great software package, able to print, edit, and do complex things with PDF files. Way better than Adobe's extortion, and great features like editing text, flattening comments/edits, and measuring to scale that many other software packages would charge significantly more for.

Dear PDF-Xchange
Sales department
For now, just suggestions
1. Include tool to group images, lines, polylines or multiple objects...
2. Include tool to draw 3D objects like boxes, cylinders, etc., to use them in an isometric plan.
3. When using Copy or Cut option on objects like Text, lines or squares, it is not possible to paste them into other programs like Word, Excel, etc. This needs to be fixed.
4. When using layers, they should automatically apply all the features when a layer is assigned to an object; this feature does not work correctly as in other programs like AutoCAD.

I am a newbie to PDF-Exchange.That being said... I am more than impressed by the gamut of offerings in this PDF editor. I chose it to replace another PDF app which fails in several areas that are important to professional renderings via PDF. Actually, I've been trying A LOT of PDFs and few meet the requirements of the elements they purport to have.
PDF-Exchange after a month or so? (and I use PDFs daily) It's BETTER than all I've tried and from what I am trying to do to stump PDF-Exchange.... the more I realise you've done a superlative job in creating this product.
Bravo!

I needed a PDF editor that could turn a PDF into a form, and didn't want to spend a lot of money. PDF-XChange fit the bill perfectly! The user interface was easy to navigate and I was able to turn my PDF, which was an application form originally written in Word and saved as a PDF, into a fillable form. This software turned out to be a good investment for me and I'll make use of it in the future.

I recently repurchased PDF-Xchange for an additional installation in home use environment under Parallel-Dektop, and brought back the pleasure of working with my favorite PDF-Tool on Mac. Apple's Preview is fine, but it's limitations are sometimes quite heavy, i.e.it cannot do many things like draw polygons, measure and so on, things your PDF-Xchange does pretty well and I hope you will hold on these features also in future.
In my professional past in the role of advisor, I brought PDF-XChange Editor into several real estate businesses, where it was widely used to review plans, correct documents. They also were absolutely satisfied of the allover performance, especially quick rendering of complex PDF, its measuring and editing tool.

The PDF-XChange Editor is an excellent software application and, in my opinion, well worth its very reasonable selling price.

I purchased this PDF software only a few weeks ago for home use only and have not yet tried out many of its features, but to date, I am quite satisfied. I have no doubt that PDF-XChange can work well even for professional business use, especially if one upgrades to the "Plus" package with adds even more features.

3 years on and the best PDF editor/creator. Used daily, without any issues. Bit of a learning curve, but intuitive. Help info is superb. The product is fast and effective. Tidy in its layout and functionality. If you need and use PDF's, this is the tool. The renewal licence is fair for upgrades... This beats Adobe in so many ways, no more tearing your hair out in frustration... not to mention the background bloatware and ransom Adobe hold you to using their products.

I like the versatility of the software and the wide range of options it provides for working with pdf documents. The electronic signing and stamps are very useful when reviewing documents and drawings in a structured quality management system.
I don't like it that one cannot edit text already inserted into a drawing. It can only be deleted, moved and copied, but not edited. You have to delete it and redo the text.

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!

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 have used adobe, foxit reader, nitro pro for over a decade, and am impressed with the funcionality, speed, reliability of PDFX, it handles very large files and does not crash or freeze and has all and more tooled than I found in my other pdf editors, for a fraction of the price, also support is very responsive, usually within a few minutes for me.

Der PDF-XChange Editor ist eine Prima Alternative zu Adobe und gefällt mir sehr gut auch der Preis ist i.O.

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.

Has lots of 'comment' material. Not sure what changed after I opted to pay rather than keep enjoying the 'free' version?
How do I make the lines thicker on the call out tool where one can add comments ?

I like the functionality.
What I would like is to have the text tools (bold, underline, font etc) in the home tab, since I use them a lot.

I am very happy with the editor. I haven't tested everything yet, but the editor is more than sufficient for my purposes. Sorry, I need to have this text translated. I don't speak or write English.

I had to edit a pdf doc fast. I tested many products on the market and they all failed. However, PDF-XChange came through and worked wonderfully... It saved my tail !

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.

An acquaintance told me about this software. Used the free version for a while to good effect, finally got the full licence version as I needed a few of the extra tools. It’s intuitive and does the job. Good that a longer licence is discounted too.
