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

Excellent, very intuitive. The first application I come across which erases content so easily from a pdf.
I wish overlapping of highlighting could produce a uniform colour, instead darker ovelapping zones.

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.

So far, so good! I was able to determine the entry level version fits my needs well, and so far it's been easy to work with.
Your online support is exceptional, thank you for that!

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.

It has been about a month since I started to use PDF-XChange editor by switching from Adobe Acrobat. I must say the PDF-XChange editor has a much better cost performance providing all the necessary functions. I think I will stick to this service in future.

A great product, all the features you need, and most importantly, a one-time licence.

The PDF-XChange Editor is a very comprehensive tool. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to test all of its functions.
But all the tools I have tested so far have convinced me.
It is a very useful PDF tool.
I hope it will continue to be improved and supplemented with further functions
