That may not be an issue for you, but it’s worth noting. There are versions for Windows and macOS, but not for phones or tablets. With Advanced you can redact information, apply Bates numbering to pages, export to various cloud storage services and have multiple people working on the same document at the same time, though this only works if they’re on the same local network, which somewhat limits its usefulness. It will also make scanned documents searchable using OCR. You can also edit text within PDFs, change images, annotate and more. Standard has the core features most people need, such as creating PDFs from various formats and combining multiple files into a single PDF.

There are again two versions: Power PDF Standard and Power PDF Advanced. And that means you will be able to get up and running with it very quickly. Previously distributed under the Nuance brand, Kofax Power PDF is intuitive and easy to use, especially if you’re familiar with Microsoft Office. You can’t use PDFgear to create forms, but if this and the fact there’s no direct integration with cloud storage services aren’t deal-breakers, then there’s a lot to like here. You can even use it to find information within a document, which can save a lot of time. You can type natural-language commands to get things done, such as “Convert this PDF to Excel format” or “Summarise this PDF”. It’s the AI Copilot feature that makes PDFgear stand out though. When you actually open a file, PDFgear offers an Office-style interface where you can edit text just as you would in Word or any word procesor. The interface is divided into five tabs with “Hot Tools” being the first, then options to convert from and to PDF, Merge & Split, and – last – All Tools. It’s a proper editor as well: it has a lot of the tools you’d expect to find in a paid-for editor and is available for Windows, Mac and mobile devices.

If being free to use wasn’t reason enough to give PDFgear a try, it’s also the only PDF editor here that uses AI to summarise the contents of a document and some other clever things. £46), and note that this is for Windows: no other operating systems are supported, but there is an ARM64 version for PCs that don’t use x386 processors.

To do that you’ll need the Pro version of PDF-XChange Editor which comes with an improved OCR plugin and various other add-ons, and costs about twice the price of the standard version.Ī single user lifetime license of PDF-XChange Editor will set you back just $56 (approx. One thing it won’t do is to let you edit scanned documents. In addition to editing text, changing images and other core features, PDF-XChange Editor lets you do things such as adding arrows to highlight things, callouts with text, line and distance annotations and it will also open and convert WebP images. The interface is similar to Microsoft Office, and it’s all intuitive. Similarly, if you want to edit headers and footers, add and edit Bates numbering, those aren’t available for free. If you want to be able to delete, insert and move pages, for example, you’ll need to pay.

You can download the free version without any payment details and it’ll continue working as a free version indefinitely, but will add watermarks to the pages of saved PDFs and limits you to certain features.

Costing significantly less than virtually all other business-oriented PDF editors, yet providing similar functionality, Tracker PDF-XChange Editor is well worth trying out.
