Was searching for a PDF editor and stumbled across this. Not sure about the original RRP of $299.95….. free is certainly better.

You'll need a Microsoft account in order to download this, I used Outlook.

Description:
Stuck with a PDF file you can’t edit? Look no further, you’ve just found the APP that allows you to EDIT EVERY ELEMENT of your PDF file! This is not like the other “PDF Editors” that claim you can edit a PDF, but only let you make annotations. This free edition comes topped up with unlimited editing and importing of PDF Free.

    Free with horrid ads in there, $7.45 to remove ads.

    Already downloaded, opened and deleted. Not worth it IMO.

          Firefox gets paid when Google and MS compete for a space in their browser default search bar.

          Signal is an NSA app to make you think your messages to all your dealer friends are encrypted but it's actually an NSA backdoor.

    If you need a good free PDF editor, look at the PDF Xchange Editor

    Even the free version is pretty capable, but you can unlock advanced features if you really need them (no ads in the free version either).

    Meanwhile, issues with the product, neg.

    • Seni0r El Cheapo on 10/09/2020 - 11:43

      Thanks.. PDF Xchange looks promising.

    • alphaoasis on 10/09/2020 - 13:09

      Need free PDF editor but free version of Xchange Editor has demo stamp on every page when combining files into single PDF. Trial version of PhantomPDF doesn’t have demo stamps at least. Xchange Editor is not free if using the advanced feature.

        If combining/splitting pdfs is all you need, go for PDFTK Builder. Open source and free. Description from their site.

        Open source freeware - no nags, no ads, and no bundled junk. Take control of your PDF documents - merge or split pages; stamp pages or add background watermarks; add page numbers; and even rotate pages.

        There is also a portable version

      Agreed - jumped onto PDF Xchange as it offers perpetual license and the software has worked well for me.

    LibreOffice Draw can also edit PDFs and it is free, without any ads

    Dont bother, the UI looks like a university programming project.

    299.95 original price comes with ad? You gotta be kidding

    Don't waste your time. Issue is not just the UI, you actually need to pay to be able to use it properly. Uninstalled immediately.

    R U OK?

  • icarus255 on 10/09/2020 - 11:14

    Downloaded it. Yes, there are ads no the top bar of the app. Haven't used it yet properly but looks OK. Thanks for the freebie.

    Way too many ads to be paying $300. Even considering it's free at the moment, there's better alternatives out there

    Sometimes the privacy concerns make me laugh. You know that if someone wants to know about you they can find a lot on you from your rubbish. Eg if you are single or if your gf is pregnant. Forget the nsa. 😊

    • kiteo on 10/09/2020 - 15:58

      Some users get to laugh at how off-base their algorithms can be sometimes. All the ones tracking me either think I'm a bloke or an incontinent geriatric or a tween.

    I have downloaded it, thank you so much. I will try for few months because its free with all bells and whistles. Yes ads are there but I dont click on them. Think about productivity. you will continue to drive with few speed breakers.

    $300 for a pdf editor with ads. Pay an additional $7 per month to remove ads. Riiiiiiiiiight.

    Nice find though, OP. Not your fault!

    wanted to convert PDF to Word and it asked me to pay US$6 to unlock this feature.
