PDF Studio is affordable and powerful PDF Editor for Windows, Mac, Linux.
Companies that create or handle PDF documents, either in their internal processes or their customer-facing applications, across the IT, legal, pharmaceutical, financial and engineering industries.
What I loved most about this software is that it's super simple to use and has a variety of functions which will make you wonder why you've been using word all these years.
It's not that important, but the program's environment is ugly, the colors are gray and it makes it look like an outdated old program ... the truth is that it's visually unattractive.
It have optical character recognition capabilities. The best thing is that it is cross-platform and works flawlessly on Linux, Windows, and Macbooks.
I have never encountered any serious problems with PDF Studio and never wanted to do something that this editor couldn't do.
I like the interface that is nice and simple. PDF Studio is probably the best quality/price for a professional use.
It works on Linux - no other package comes close on Linux and Adobe no longer support Linux.
Friendly user, the best alternative to Acrobat DS. It simplifies the work and the results are amazing.
I questioned this with Qoppa and was told this was a deliberate decision on their part. This is imho a stupid strategy because I became wholly turned off the company even though I liked the product.
It helps an user to perfectly visualize a ebook and also it has various features that helps an individual to adapt with this software very easily.
In addition, I received a warning while downloading the program that my computer was downloading a possible harmful file, which sketched me out just a little.
It's been pretty great since I've been in search for a good one for quite some time now. I got along with it pretty well, so I'm quite happy with it.
I think that it is missing the plug-ins to view those type of documents correctly.
I love this program and it is a great alternative to Acrobat Reader. I would highly recommend it for its speed, simplicity and great functionality.
Some time updating is difficult , it causes issues and some tools are difficult to navigate.
I would like to recommend you to use Foxit Reader because it is a very easy and powerful all-in-one solution for PDF files.
I don't like that there's an update that refuses to install and my IT team can't figure how to fix it.
Bruce: My name is Bruce. I'm a retired minister and I've been using Foxit Reader. I give it a rating of a five, a top review. And for more reviews, please click below. I was using Adobe Acrobat Reader before. And at that time, I wanted to be able to highlight information and I just found it a little bit harder to work with. So I went looking for some other free way. I chose Foxit Reader first because it was free and I found it very easy to use. I found there's a lot more features. As I got further into it, there were a lot more features that I wish I had learned earlier. But it seems like my very robust program. I found Foxit Reader very easy to learn, especially for the very basic features. So that was really good. I wish I had more time to learn how to use additional features, but that's probably more on me. I think for a new person learning how to use Foxit Reader, just take some time to experiment. There were some times when I wish I had practiced a little bit more before bringing it into a live situation. One time, I remember trying to use Foxit Reader for a long meeting and there was like a 100 page booklet I had to follow with. And because I didn't practice ahead of time, I kind of got myself lost in the program. So it was a little frustrating for me, but that was on me. So take the time to learn it. I think it will be well worth the investment.
