I started using the free version and, realizing the advantages of the full version, got the license. It is even possible to do some tasks with other free software, which I have come to see, but with PDF-XChange is much faster and practical. It really is software I recommend. ----- ### "Excellent application." — 5.0/5 > **Adefemi** | *11 July 2025* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that PDF Change is quite similar to adobe yet has more options to work with documents. You can combine documents, resize and email directly to outlook. > > **Cons**: No cons really. It’s an amazing application. I like it so much. The rotate function acts up sometimes but other than that, it’s a good app. ----- ### "Good, but some improve is needed to edit funcionality" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *29 July 2019* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use and intuitive interface make this software accessible for users at any level. Well organized top ribbon with few well grouped buttons allow to navigate among functions, and let users easily add/edit elements on their pdf documents, with an overall word processor feeling. > > **Cons**: Some negative aspects are related to the edit function. In several cases, the software tends to change the original font in a specific chunk of text (ie: if you want to add a letter in a mistyped word), and even if the typography appears good and consistent during the editing session, it loses consistency as soon as you save it. Someway the software replaces the original typography with a new one. > > PDF-XChange allows to quickly process pdf's without the need to gather the source it comes from. Extremely useful in today's work environments where production and transmission of digital documents represent a relevant part of daily activity (ie: invoicing / orders / brochures). Some annoying aspects affect the software reliability (typography consistency) and decrease productivity, but after some practice and experience, they can be easily handled with some workaround. ----- ### "Better than Adobe by a mile." — 5.0/5 > **Joe** | *8 February 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is an all in one package. I use PDF-X every single day and find it to be the best PDF software on the market. > > **Cons**: Nothing. Not a single complaint. There really isn't any negative thing I can think of. > > AAA+++. It gives me so many options that I have not been able to use them all. ----- ### "Besy PDF reader and editor" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *8 December 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I can do every possible thing I may expect from a PDF editor. For instance, I can edit, change, sign, and convert. > > **Cons**: It is quite expensive. It needs to add some more features like a tick mark, etc. > > I am very comfortable to use the reader due to its functionality. I believe it will keep evolving for days to come. ----- Page: 1 / 12\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/476965/PDF-XChange?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/476965/PDF-XChange) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
