    PDF editing without the cost

    Date: Mar 04 2024
    Summary

    I had to edit a PDF image document for a client making an offer to purchase a home. I was able to accomplish this task from my phone while going to a family event. Without having the app, I would not have been able to do edit while my wife was driving. I would have to have return home, edit the document and then go to the event.

    Positive

    The ability to edit PDF’s on the fly from my phone. Then accessing the file remotely from online storage.

    There were some hiccups in the beginning, but I like using PDF Extra.

    Negative

    The hiccups in the beginning were initially very frustrating, but once I worked through them the app worked perfect.

    Date: Mar 04 2024

    Brilliant, now free adobe is discontinuing some of the simple options like turning the landscape on a page this is a cheap alternative.

    Date: Dec 08 2023
    Summary

    Very satisfied by the overall experience. Will use it agin as it seems very reliable and a safe product in the market right now.

    Positive

    The product and the support back up was out standing. The PDF extra do what exactly it supposed to do, the product support team resolve any customer issues in a very timely manner.

    Negative

    The basic file was bit heavy as it take bit more time to load up than in some cases.

    A decent Acrobat alternative

    Date: Dec 06 2023
    Summary

    At this price point, I really can't complain much. The app has all the PDF features you need and also works like a charm on my not-so-new PC. All they have to do is add a convenient way to compare documents, otherwise I find the product great for the kind of work I do.

    Positive

    The app is very straightforward to use, I didn't have to look up any tutorials since the interface is so well laid out. In terms of features, it has everything you can expect from a PDF product, but I personally use the file conversion and editing features the most. It supports all common formats, such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, which is great since I often have to work with Microsoft file formats. It also doesn't break the formatting during conversion, which is something I've seen other apps do.

    Negative

    You can't really compare documents side by side, or at least I didn't find the option. Right now, you have to open two separate instances, which is not great when you're working on a single monitor, which I suspect is the case for many users like me. Hopefully, that will get added in a future update.

    Good value for money

    Date: Dec 08 2023
    Summary

    I was not about to pay Adobe's extortionate prices. This does everything I need without needing to look up guides.

    Positive

    It's way cheaper than Adobe and it actually works fine offline. It looks like it gets updated very frequently and new things keep popping up.

    Negative

    Some files that a long time to open. Sometimes big files open quickly but small files open slowly.

    Great product

    Date: Dec 26 2023
    Summary

    I really like the app when it comes to documents better than Adobe, the app is just a little too expensive for what your not getting like having to pay for storage as well. Other than that I really like it.

    Positive

    I like the edit feature of Pdf because sometimes when your just filling in it only takes a certain size font and you can't change it to make everything fit but with the edit feature you can just add something like a text box and that way you can control the font and make sure everything fits on the line of a pre-filled document.

    Negative

    I don't like that you can't move through devices more throughly, even with the mobile drive. The fact that the mobile drive and pdf are two separate purchases is a no for me too because why can't it be just one set price.

    My Go-to PDF Editor

    Date: Jan 05 2023
    Summary

    Great product at a great price that does everything I need and runs smoothly on both my phone and laptop. Highly recommended!

    Positive

    Looks like a native Microsoft app, which is great since I didn’t waste any time familiarizing myself with the product and started working straight away. I find PDF Extra’s workflow to be superior to Adobe’s as the interface is much more straightforward to use, so I get more done in less time. The software has lots of pretty handy features, but probably the ones I use the most include merging multiple files into one PDF, the built-in file compressor, and the options to convert PDFs to Microsoft Word and PowerPoint files.

    Negative

    Perhaps the only slight downside I have noticed so far is the inability to open multiple documents in separate tabs instead of new instances as it is right now. Would love it if this could get addressed at some point in the future.

    User Friendly and FUN to use!!

    Date: Dec 16 2023
    Summary

    Love it! Would recommend to Office managers and Compliance Officers.

    Positive

    User-friendly is a huge PLUS as well as all the features. I have not explored them all yet. But so far I love working with it.
    My job is a remote position and I love the Stamps and Digital Signatures, as well as creating a Form. I am constantly having to create a form as I am in the Medical Administrative Field and PDF X makes it very easy and less time-consuming, which is a HUGE PLUS when a New Form is needed. And even if you have to Update an old form. Scan it, PDF X will recognize the text and you can RECREATE a brand new form that looks a lot more Professional. My next form will be using the QR feature to take payments. Scan the QR Code on your Statement and pay your bill!! I am almost finished with it. Can't wait until my Patients See this feature!!

    Negative

    Cannot figure out how to open/use "Multiple Tabs".

    Date: Dec 08 2023
    Summary

    I love this program. It just needs to add some more features, so we don't need another apps to finish our work.

    Positive

    It's very easy to use. I can easily edit and convert the files. It's really pleasant to use these features as it has a simple and effective layout.

    Negative

    I wanted to embed fonts, so I can publish my books, but or it doesn't allow me, or the feature doesn't work. I don't remember, but I know that I am dependent on another company for that. I hope you solve it as I would love to so everything with PDF Extra.
