It just works!

5.0 2 years ago

Pros:

East to edit any PDF doc without any funky delay - select easily and edit away! Convert edited file to pretty much any type of files. ORC recognizes text not only from scanned document but even from images! Lot more other features

Cons:

Don't know any cons! It might take you a little time to click around and try other features and maybe read some documentation. But once you're comfortable you'll love this PDF reader!

10 Fatal Flaws (see list)

1.0 last year

Comments: Incredibly frustrating! Have been in contact with them (PDF Reader Pro Team <[email protected]>) on a regular basis for over half a year now and not a SINGLE ONE of the 10 Fatal Flaws has been fixed!?

Pros:

It opens .pdf documents, that's just about it, unfortunately.

Cons:

Good day,Any updates on when you will fix these 10 fatal flaws in your software? :1) Not being able to EDIT text in a pdf?! (Probably the single most important thing your software can not do without)2) Not being able to edit whether a font is in bold, italics, etc.3) Exporting text to Word (or others) without turning it into an IMAGE?! (with completely uneditable text)4) Command + Z (on Mac - should be 'undo') is not working5) When text is added, it's impossible to move or highlight the text using the cursor keys and shift (let alone cut/copy/paste)6) Command + X (cut) does not work although Command + V (paste) does.7) Once an 'Add Text' cell has been added somewhere in a document, it's IMPOSSIBLE to get back into it, if one has to edit any information.8) 'Add Text' cell can NOT be moved using cursor keys to place it with more precision9) If there are boxes to 'tick' you have to do 'Add Text' in order to be able to put an X or a 'tick' - In Acrobat you just TICK and DONE!10) If you accidentally 'bump' a line of text in a document in Edit mode / Add Text mode, the software FORGETS where the original positioning of the line was and the lines all get SCREWED UP!It's impossible to recover from this, you have to start from scratch!
