The absolutely best pdf editor I've used. Exceeds Adobe Acrobat for ease of use and price
I will recommend it to everyone as an Acrobat replacement.

Got used to the old free version which was sort of easier to find the functions and it took me a while to find all the functions I was used to, but now I love the licensed version with the extra options and I am slowly but surely getting used to it. Will probably now battle with the old version again. Money worth spent.

All features that allow to work with pdf files: Print, edti text, edit objets, convert, organize pages, trim pages, watermarks, etc.
Dislike
I think I'm working with a Windows 7 app instead a Windows 11.

I purchased your PDF-XChange Editor out of frustration with Adobe's Reader, with NCH's PicoPDF, and with Foxit's Reader as well. Both Adobe and Foxit had eliminated bookmarking from their "reader" products, requiring subscriptions at fairly high prices to contract products that would permit bookmarking in PDF format documents. PicoPDF seemed useful until I discovered it would not load large PDF files. I found your product quite by accident and am glad I did. Yours is now my "go to" product for managing files in PDF format having set it up as the default program for ".pdf" files. I not only appreciate being able to bookmark but am particularly fond of the OCR Convert feature that efficiently permits text selection within large documents without requiring conversion of the entire document. In summary I'm very fond of your product; it's a keeper.

There is little question that this is the most complex PDF program I have ever used, with a variety of PDF file security features.
Obviously, the functions of PDF-XChange Editor are not shared with other comparable applications.
The program quality is excellent.

Very much like that this is a license you pay for one time and is not a recurring subscription. The editing options are exactly what our company needs and it is a very user friendly interface.

Good product. I used a cracked version for several years. I am a developer myself, and I decided to support the product by purchasing a license. But I am not ready to pay for a subscription, a lifetime license is a good option.

I was pleasantly surprised at the performance of PDF-XChange Editor.
Load time is quick and performing daily tasks is simple and intuitive. Easy to locate features and functions.
Compared to FoxIT PDF Editor, PDF-XChange is a much better value.
Excellent product value!

After researching a bunch of PDF Reader/Editors for our company I discovered PDF-XChange Editor and WOW! It works great for reading and managing your history. I got the paid version for editing and a hugely impressed at how well it works. As IT Manager for the company I moved everyone to using PDF-XChange Editor.

The only words to describe this product are fantastic, fantastic, fantastic. I've used several high-end PDF editors before and this one not only ticks all the boxes it does it seamlessly.
Handles right to left script accurately has a highly accurate OCR in multiple languages, a good set of measuring tools which are easy to calibration. PDF-XCange has an intuitive, easy to navigate interface. This is far more than just a PDF editor.
The reason why I switched from my previous PDF editor - Nitro PDF, was because Nitro changed their licensing to force annual subscription. I'm delighted that Nitro PDF forced me to investigate alternatives otherwise I might not have discovered this superior editor.
Besides being an excellent PDF editor PDF XChange offers a perpetual liftime license which I find more attractive.

שלום,
עדיין לא הספקתי ללמוד את כל הפונקציות של התוכנה.
יש לי עדיין או חוסר ידע איך פותחים שני חולונות של אותו קובץ לא תחת אותו חלון /טאב, אלא כאשר הקובץ כבר פתוח אני רוצה לפתוח את אותו קובץ בחלון אחר ואני מסתבך עם זה.
היתה לי תמיכה טובה מהנציג שלכם ג'ורדן.
זהו בינתיים,
שלמה קליין

Grundlegend ist die Software eine echte Arbeitserleichterung mit vielen nützlichen Features.
Im Zuge von Updats sind aber auch alte gute Funktionen verloren gegangen.
Der Import von Stempeln war frührr bedeutend einfacher, Stempel in entsprechenden Ordner in Verzeichnis der Programms kopiert, neu gestarte und die Stempel waren verfügbar und richtig bezeichnet. Klappt mit eingenen Stempel nicht mehr.
Funktion weiße Ränder entfernen, funktioniert z. B. bei gescannten Dokumenten nicht automatisch, als Beispiel Scan DIN A5, wird auf A4 gespeichert und der freie Rand kann nur manuel entfernt werden.

after using Adobe Acrobat Pro for 15 years I was looking for an alternative. not because of usability, but only because of cost; the Adobe subscription is much to expensive. I found PDF-XChange. In projects at customers site I head already head to use PDF-XChange. At that time I was not really convinced of the tools and wanted my Acrobat back, But now I love PDF-XChange using it on my Windows notebook! to bad there ist no Apple app for my iPhone/iPad!

I work full-time, am a part time student, and light-medium PDF user, and I'm very happy with my purchase. I've been using the software (Xchange Editor) since October 24 and I'm so happy with the features and performance. I'm also really glad not to have to deal with the bloated and intrusive Ad--- "Reader" app anymore. This software is very intuitive, customizable, loads quickly, and has everything I need (and WAY more, lol!). I love the text editor, pdf merging and converting, and feel spoiled by the fast and accurate OCR. Anyway, I don't leave reviews often but wanted to share my positive experience :) Cheers to the developers.

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.
