The PDF format is the most popular and convenient for saving documents before printing or just reading them. It is unrealistic to list all its advantages, but there are also cons. For example, it does not open and is not edited by any standard tools in the Windows operating system. However, there are programs that allow changing the files of this format, and we will look at them in this article.
Adobe Acrobat Reader DC
The first software on our list will be software from the well-known Adobe company, which has several interesting features. It is intended solely for viewing and small editing PDF files. There is an opportunity to add a note or highlight a part of the text in a specific color. Acrobat Reader applies for a fee, but the trial version is available for free on the official website.
Foxit Reader.
The following representative will be the program from giants in the development area. Foxit Reader functionality includes opening of PDF documents, installation of stamps. In addition, it is working with scanned documents, information about written and still has a lot of useful actions. The main plus of this software is that it is distributed completely for free without any restrictions on the functionality. However, there are also disadvantages, for example, the text recognition is not supported, as in the previous representative.
PDF-XCHANGE VIEWER
This software is very similar to the previous one, both in functionality and externally. In his arsenal, there are also a lot of additional features, including the recognition of the text that is not in Foxit Reader. Available opening, changing and converting documents to the required format. PDF-XChange Viewer is completely free and downloaded on the official website of the developers.
Infix PDF Editor
The next representative on this list will be not a very well-known program from a young company. It is not clear what is connected with this low popularity of this software, because it has everything that is present in previous software solutions, and even a little more. For example, the translation function has been added here, which is not at all in the Foxit Reader, nor in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. Infix PDF Editor is equipped with other useful tools that may be needed when editing PDF, but there is a large "but". The program is paid, although it has a demonstration version with minor restrictions in the form of a watermark overlay.
Nitro PDF Professional
This program is something average between the infix PDF Editor and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, both in popularity and functionality. It also contains all that is necessary when editing PDF files. It applies for a fee, but a trial version is available. In demozhim, no watermarks or stamps are not overlapped to editable text, and all tools are open. However, it will be free only a few days, after which it will have to buy it for further use. This software has the ability to send documents by mail, comparison of changes, PDF optimization and much more.
PDF Editor
This software is enormously distinguished by the interface from all previous ones in this list. It is extremely inconvenient, it seems overloaded and severe in understanding. But if you understand the program, it is pleasantly surprised by its extensive functionality. It is equipped with several pleasant bonuses, extremely useful in certain situations. For example, installing security with advanced parameters. Yes, the security of the PDF file is not its key property, however, compared with the protection provided in previous software, there are simply awesome settings for this direction. PDF Editor applies under a license, but you can try it for free with minor restrictions.
Verypdf PDF Editor
Verypdf PDF Editor is not too distinguished against the background of previous representatives. It has everything you need for a program of this type, but it is worth paying attention to a special detail. As you know, one of the minuses PDF is their high weight, especially with the increased quality of images in it. However, using this program you can forget about it. There are two functions that will reduce the amount of documents. The first does this by removing unnecessary elements, and the second is due to the compression. The disadvantage of the program is again the fact that a watermark is superimposed in the demo version to all editable documents.
Foxit Advanced PDF Editor
Another representative from Foxit. Here is the main set of functions characteristic of this kind of programs. Of the advantages, I would like to mark a convenient interface and Russian. A good and focused tool that provides users with everything you need to edit PDF format files.
Adobe Acrobat Pro DC
Adobe Acrobat collected all the best quality programs of this list. The biggest minus is the maximum trial version. The program has a very pleasant and convenient interface that is adjusted individually under the user. In addition, there is a convenient viewing panel of all tools, it is available on a specific tab. There is a program and enormous many possibilities, most of them, as mentioned earlier, opened only after the purchase.
Here is the entire list of programs that will emouncing the PDF documents as you are pleased. Most of them have a demolism with a trial period of several days or with restriction on functionality. We recommend carefully analyze each representative, to identify all the necessary tools for yourself and then go to purchase.
