I use it mainly to modify PDFs, which makes it quick and easy, there are some details to improve the interface but it is the least.

Pros

text editing is its main use, however the other functions are of great help when you work with texts frequently.

Cons

as all editors, the functions vary and can be unfriendly, if you do not have experience with editors it is difficult to use it

When Microsoft cancelled my Word program, I needed something to be able to create documents. Now I want to get rid rid of it but am afraid my documents that used it will disappear.

Cons

No complaints - Easy editing!

Reviewed on 2024/11/07

Pros

I've been very happy with PDF Editor Pro. I needed to add a manual PO for our finance team on to the invoice and with PDF Editor Pro, it meant that I could do this as well as highlight the amount on there. In turn, it was easier and more efficient for our Finance team to process the invoice.

Cons

I wish it would default as the main programme to edit PDF's in, but that can be sorted with settings.

It is simple to open and view files in many formats. It is the greatest PDF management and editing software. Some features of this application are very useful.

Pros

PDF Editor Pro provides you with a comprehensive toolkit for editing PDF documents. The greatest feature of this application is that it can edit PDF files in a variety of ways, including modifying signatures, photos, notes, and text, among other things. The tools are organised in a manner that is both straightforward and chronological.

Cons

There is nothing I dislike about it. Some things need improvement, such as the user interface of this application, which may be enhanced.

PDF Editor pro has saved alot of time as compare to other products I have encountered in the past. It has helped in our business to focus on core task rather than "documentation".

Pros

Most easy user interface is the first most commendeble compliment for Editor pro software. As an associate dentist at my firm, I have to work a lot with documents and quote sharing with clients-hence frequent requirement of editing proposal docs/pdf files which has become so quicker and easier because of editor pro software.

Cons

It is indeed a great product for MAC users. However, cost should be slightly cheaper so more people can afford it and enjoy hasslefree editing/converting of documents.

As a software engineer, I have to deal with loads of pdfs and documents every day, hence it is great to have a compact tool which I can use on any device to do all basic editing. I can use it on my phone while travelling if needed. It saves my time and effort. It fulfils all my daily document editing needs.

Pros

My most used tool is the electronic signature, which saves me loads of time from physically printing and scanning documents. My second most used tool of this software is the conversion tool. It is quick and uploading files and converting is an easy process. The UI is pretty simple and the different buttons and tools self-explanatory and instinctual. They also let us rearrange pages and order documents as needed which helps out in editing.

Cons

Though I haven't had any major problem with this software. But sometimes some new updates have some small issues initially. Though getting back to the older version and upgrading after some time has solved my problem in such cases.

I used PDF Editor Pro when I had a Mac. It was very convenient and I would highly recommend it.

Pros

Very easy to scan files.( I haven't seen this feature work as well in other editors).
You can merge and split individual PDF files (can decide the order). Text can be easily modified, moved, and deleted.
There are existing stamps - ('Urgent', 'Approved', and you can create your own.
Handwritten Initials and Signatures can be scanned (or photographed your phone) and saved - you can provide them names, and sort in individual groups, very convenient.

Cons

Wasn't a big issue but I thought typewriter functionality (when you select any spot on the page and would like to type there) could be improved a bit. Same functionality in Kofax works better.

I have a lot of pdf files which need managing. This app does everything I need such as maintaining the pdf files, merging, searching, etc.

Pros

It is the best app for editing and managing pdf files. Particularly, I like the feature of search where you can search inside multiple pdf files.

Cons

It takes so much space in hard drive and RAM. It is a professional app but still some features needed to be bought!

Quote impressive and acceptable. I admire to make the editor Pro as my default PDF viewer and editor.

Pros

Pdf editor pro is the software which is provided by my company and it is in-built in my company PC. It is very easy to open and view the files in different formats. The best thing I like is that I can edit the pdf in terms of signature, images, text, markings, notes and many more. The tools are placed in a simple and chronological order. I usually use the software for forms filling and signatures. The E signature feature of the editor pro is very helpful. There is an feature of adding and subtracting pages to the pdf and also to save a copy of original pdf. The final view of the edited pdf is quite realistic and highly appreciable.

Cons

Not much to say about the cons as the software is superb and working fantastic. I will add a suggestion over an error which some times comes when Typewriter is selected. It makes the text irregular and it has to be adjusted as per the spacing.

Surprisingly good PDF Editor

Pros

The ability to convert documents with just the click of a button is wonderful. It is so easy to use. I can convert files, store files, digitally sign documents and I can also lock sensitive documents using passwords or permission notifications. Really impressed.

Cons

The latest version seems to have a little bug but it is not the worst thing ever. The software tends to freeze every now and then once I attempt to open new files I thought it was just my pc until my colleague told me about the same issue.

With physical documents that have an error, it allows me to edit and correct them so as not to completely redo the document, this feature is my favorite.

Pros

Cons
