Create, edit, convert, annotate, protect, merge, watermark, compress, and sign PDF files in a better way.
PDF element is an ideal tool for the creation and edition of pdf files, the creation of PDF documents is simple, and fast, you can create files based on any other document, from text files, images, among other types of documents, the editing of these files is very easy, it is a tool that any person of any age, with basic knowledge of informatics, can use at will.
The text sources are too limited, I think that an application like this should have other types of text sources, but use the same as many text processors, besides the text centering tools are not automatic, you must center everything to measure, and it is not always perfect, they should be predetermined, to have more perfect documents, in different types of sizes and types of sheets.
In our school we use hundreds of digital documents, which we have developed with PDF Element, now we have an immense digital library that grows daily, with the continued digitization of text and documents, thanks to this we have a complete library of all types of information available for our students and teachers.
"Great PDF Reader In Very Less Price"
The User Interface of this software is totally inspired by the MS Word, which i like very much also they have all the feature to edit a PDF or Create a PDF and Very usefull tool for me that in One click I Convert PDF to WORD, EXCEL, POWERPOINT etc which i use very much.The Most Best part of this software for all is that they take One Time Subscription FEES which is very low compare to other Software.They update their software very fast.They have also OCR feature.
what I dislike about this software is that You cannot able to add custom created tool in this Software.Like Extra Add-on or feature.
I Recommend all people to use this Software because it is very low price and you get all the features.
"Best alternative to adobe acrobat"
The user interface is really great, the tools it provides makes it easy to work with any PDFs and it has really amazing OCR capabilities ! I really love the drawing tools, it really helps me when reviewing documents and taking notes in class. Really simple to add quick pop up style notes, simply double click !
They are no shortcuts to go on about your way trough the different actions you can do. As a power user i always appreciate such things. You can't zoom in/out with your trackpad (pinch to zoom) gestures. Kinda strange as most application (on macOs) at least let's you do that.
If the price scares you, look at other professional PDF editors/viewers that offer this level of tools for free and the top of the line OCR capabilities for the price, you won't find anything that good. Most of the tools you can use are 80$+ or have subscription fees. Very good bang for you buck.
Annotate, add information and draw on top of the PDFs for correction demands, code reviews and creating/modifying contracts to be sent and signed by my clients.
I also use it for school when reviewing and taking notes in class for the lectures. Much faster and time saver for taking notes and drawing.
Like you, I also appreciate shortcut keys - it beats needing to use my mouse/tracking pad! We have a few shortcut keys available, but there is currently no guide on which key combinations trigger what. We are launching our new blog soon so I'll look into creating a blog post around that.
In response to your feedback on the zoom in/out function: Currently, the way to zoom in and out is using Command and -/+, but using the trackpad to pinch is a function that we should consider.
I like that the user interface is so much like Microsoft Office. It feels like you are in part of the office suite. I consider myself to be a power user and I have not run into an issue of not having a feature or tool that isn't available. I also like that PDFelement is nearly 20% of the cost of Adobe Acrobat Professional. The auto form feature, where the OCR creates the form fields automatically is a real time-saver. The OCR is superior to that of many PDF editors with OCR features. The OCR is more accurate.
The logo image in the custom signature block is not editable; you can disable but not change the logo. There does not seem to be a way for you to set the default size of a PDF when you first open PDF to view.
If you want the most used features with the likes of Adobe Acrobat Pro without the hefty price tag then PDFelement is a serious alternative.
I have saved a lot of time with file conversion from PDF to Word and making the PDF searchable and editable without having to import it into MS Word. The ability to protect and having legally acceptable documents through electronic and digital signatures allows me to sign and send documents without having to print, handwrite my signature and scan back to PDF and then email a document saving time and not wasting paper and ink.
We're glad to hear that PDFelement is helping you work efficiently and at an affordable cost!
I saw that you had posted the same concern in the Community Forum about the custom signature block - We have the option to select "imported graphic" under "configure graphic". You can upload your own logo, then deselect "logo" under "configure text" to have only YOUR logo and your digital signer present. Let me know if this is what you're looking for, or if you have suggestions on how to make this process more intuitive.
"Easiest software to get many things done on PDF"
I can't stress enough about the price. When I wanted a PDF editor, I tried many.
Each free tool was introducing some form of additional artifact and the commercial tools like Acrobat are too pricey for what they are worth. When I tried PDF Elements Pro, I was blown away.
There are no side effects to changing text. It is so simple to edit. OCR feature is a bonus.
I couldn't find where to have more text formatting features like underline etc.
Another issue is that when the text is being added it used to be wrapped in the bounding box and because of which it used to jump across lines. I prefer if the bounding box increases if there is whitespace.
I wish this product has ability to remove security once we know the open password. We have to rely on another software from same company.
Small problem is that some fonts have mis-sized characters. If I type few characters it shows a warning and if I replace it with different character the warning beside bounding box disappears.
Definitely go for it. The product is double the worth of its price easily. There won't be minor side effects and you don't have to rely on online convertors where you don't have control on your data.
Mostly editing PDF files, add my own bookmarks. I had to edit some old documents of mine earlier and with this software it has been breeze. Editing slides rendered as pdfs.
"Easy to use and highly functional PDF alternative, at a very affordable cost."
This software provides me with all the functionality that I need, and makes it really easy to use with its highly intuitive user interface. It is a very attractive and affordable alternative to other high end PDF products, AND without "cutting corners". It's one of those very rare cases where you actually get MORE than what you paid for, believe me!
Dislike? Well, so far, in terms of " disliking" , there is absolutely nothing that I dislike about this PDF product. Now, there is always room for improving, but's that is another story.
You should try this product! There is absolutely nothing to loose, because you are going to get your work done, and, in addition, more than possible, I believe that it is going to be highly probable that you are going to fall in love with it! Give it a try!
So far, I have been using it solely for sending and protecting documents through emails and simple form processing.
The OCR is excellent in converting scanned documents accurately and quickly. The software is intuitive and easy to manage. There are excellent help features included with the software. The price was very good for the complexity and usage of this product.
There are a few times when editing a PDF that it is difficult to highlight a specific area. However, that may be due to this being fairly new to me.
When you compare PDFelement to other similar software, you will find that it offers more features for a lower price. It is also not clunky is working with editing, but offers great features to make the work easy and efficient.
The software is offering the ability to take older documents, only available in paper form and change them to digital images that can be altered. This is especially helpful for those needing to update your business' policies and notes.
"You get what you want from it...Just say once.. PDF Element is there to help you every time."
User friendly. Easy to use. Excellent product and I was looking for quick way to edit and create PDF and re-edit documents. This has everything and its a package in itself without any ifs and buts. Just get the things rolling. Initially, I was using some Nitro pdf, but it was creating a problems for me while saving the documents, so I decided to buy this software and since then no looking back.
Sometimes, it opens files in two different windows, I don't know why. Some times when I use the arrow keys to move between the fields it jumps to different pages. Please resolve this issue. Not sure, it is because of this software of the problem with the fillable form.
Anyone can trust this software from efficiency and productivity point of view. Easy to use but with lot of unexplored features. Editing, converting, saving, etc... I use this program to do just about everything possible.
Thanks for sharing! I would like to clarify a few things with you, as we would like to look into these issues!
1) What you mean when you note that the software opens the file in two different windows? Does the software open twice simultaneously?
2) And does the arrow key issue happen no matter which form fields you toggle between?
3) Are you on Windows or Mac?
"An Easy to Handle Pdf Application"
The application is light-weight and hence launches pretty fast. The user-interface is simple, yet powerful and convenient. The OCR function seems as effective as that of any other software in the market (I have used Acrobat reader, nitro pdf and nuance power pdf).
It will be nice to have an MS Word extension. While creating pdf's from word docs, the bookmarks are not carried on automatically from the word file.
1. Acrobat is good but uses much system memory which affects the overall performance. Further, it is very costly.
2. Foxit Phantom is lightweight but the OCR recognition is not up to mark.
3. Nuance power pdf and nitro pdf have lots of additional features but the interface is cluttered. For example, identifying and using a highlighted text is very difficult in power pdf as they have put the panel right below the text.
4. The only con I have encountered with PDFelement so far is the absence of an extension for MS word.
PDFelement has been extremely helpful in converting pdf to other formats without the loss of quality. Moreover, the form templates have reduced the workload while organising multiple surveys under the same project.
Thank you for such a detailed review - it's clear that you're an experienced user of PDF solutions software and I really appreciate the time you took to share your insights.
If you ever have any recommendations or suggestions for PDFelement, feel free to drop us a note!
"Best PDF program that I have ever used!"
I love how easy it is to edit and convert documents into PDF. It makes it so easy for an office that is fast paced and I do not have to worry about having a slow program. I will and already highly recommend this program to all businesses that would need to have it. I have used several different ones in the past and this by far has been the best that I have seen and used.
I do not have anything to dislike about the program. I guess the only thing could be that there is nothing wrong with it yet. I did have one instance where I tried to edit in the PDF program and it completely moved my line all out of sorts. I tried to edit it again but did the same thing. I ended up going to the word document and changing it and then resaving as a PDF document. I haven't tried it again but I hope it does not do it again in the future.
I would highly recommend this program for a company that needs a program to edit and convert files into PDF with ease.
Editing, converting, saving, etc... I use this program to do just about everything possible. When I download applications, I upload them into PDF. When they are in PDF, I am still able to edit as I please with no issues at all.
"Simple tool that actually works"
How you can actually edit a document just like WORD, and then are able to generate a professional looking PDF, very clean and crisp. I love also how it doesn't take up so much space. I'm no expert in memory consumption but I've used other apps before and the spammy of the app has always made me weary of other apps. What I can share is this app is spam free from my usage. It just let me do the job and do it fast.
I don't have really anything to say I don't like about this product, its really a simple product to use which I love. Maybe a better on boarding video to use the product would help.
I need a quick way to edit and create PDF and re-edit documents. This tool allowed me to do that. It was quit amazing to see how user friendly this product was. I was expecting more difficulty since it was a paid product and one that was recommended to me by a friend who spoke very highly of this product. The time it takes me now to create a draft, print out a PDF and then having to go back and make edits to it has saved me so much time in my daily work. It has added a level of efficiency to my business as well.
Thank you for your feedback, I'm happy that our editing capabilities suits your needs! I like you point about an on boarding video - I feel that creating more resources that people can look to for self-help would make the learning curve a lot lower. We're currently in the process of creating additional YouTube tutorials and re-launching our blog, so if you have any other suggestions please let us know!
"Great Solution For a Mid Sized Business"
The software has a lot of power but is also incredible simple to use. Ease of use is a big concern for us because we have several people who could use the software if they understand how to. The interface does a really nice job of giving you control as well as functionality.
I haven't really found a lot of disadvantges. I had to use free versions of other software prior to having this one so it is like driving a cadillac.
When you don't want to have to pay a monthly fee to use the software on top of the cost to purchase it initially this would be the best option for you. It is a great option for a company that doesn't have a primary need for a full suite of pdf software but wants it to work when you need it. It has all of the features even a more advanced user would need in a format that is not intimidating to the average user.
Increased integration between our old and new systems. This gives us the ability to transform the majority of our old paper forms into a pdf that we can edit and use in our new system. A big positive is that the customer receive a consistent experience by seeing the same forms with the only difference being this one is on an ipad vs. the other one being made from dead tree's.
"A very professional package, at a very reasonable price."
Easy to use and powerful PDF software that covers all my day-to-day requirements. It has a well thought out metro-style start page so you can choose exactly what you want to do, an uncluttered user interface, strong content-editing tools, easy page manipulation, and built in OCR capabilities. It is a very professional package, at a very reasonable price.
I would really like page/document flattening capabilities.
Consider extending the licence to cover 3 devices.
If you are looking for an easy to use, professional PDF software at a reasonable price then try PDF Element - you won't be disappointed.
Update after using the software for more than a year - it really is good software. Suggestions are taked seriously and acted on, and the help team are super responsive.
I chose PDFelement after comparing many PDF editors. This one is well designed, get (almost) all the features I need and is a very good value for the money spent. User interface is friendly and well designed. The documents scanning feature is well thought. File conversion .xls, .doc, ..) is useful and well done. File optimization is easy and efficient.
No Outlook preview yet (this feature seems to be under development). Also, when adding comments to a document, I have to select add a comment for each new comment. I would prefer that the comment function stays selected.
So far the best PDF editing software that I have used.
Print to PDF, edit PDF, optimize PDF size (I use the web size a lot in order to get the smallest file size, and the file still looks great), and more, all in one software.
"A Beautiful Update to a Great Application"
I like a lot about this version of PDF Element 6. But, the most pleasing is the User Interface. In version 5, the tools were presented in a non-intuitive way, making it a bit confusing to edit documents and create forms. In version 6 the interface has been overhauled to my delight. At first glance, the tools are in the same place, but the difference is that they standout better for easy location. As a Mac user, I also appreciate the tabs used the separate the tool functions. It's as familiar as using Pages or Keynote. Kudos to the developers!
To be honest, during my evaluation, I did not find a single thing to dislike.
For the price and capabilities provided, I highly recommend PDFelement. It's a very capable PDF editor for an amazing price. I've been using it since version 5, and version 6 is even better!
When filling out expense reports, they are provided in PDF format, but are not fillable. With PDFelement, that's no problem. The editing capability allows me to add my relevant text in a font of my choice, and position it perfectly. It's a real time saver!
"When a product exceeds your expectations"
PDFelement is the best software i have ever used to edit a PDF file, it made my experience so pelasant, simple ways to edit a file and add whatever you like to, its very reliable & straight forward, i recommend everyone to give it a try and see for them selves, never again worry about your hand writing as this software is made to make you fill & print any PDF file with ease and make it look like a pro.
I first tried it as a trial and in no time i downloaded it again and i am looking for a pro version.
Dont hesitate its worth every penny.
It is the best aoftware you will ever find in the market, ease of use, clean and made to make you look like a pro when you fill a form.
No more hand writing and it can recognize any form i believe.
"PDF Element 6 Mac Software Review"
1.	All the drop-down tools that are familiar with using Mac software is almost gone. The idea is to go to toolbars with descriptive text underneath each command.
2.	Change text change is simpler in 6 than in 5. 6 allows the user the ability to change multiple items on one panel and not clicking another icon for the information.
3.	The ability to convert the PDF file to Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel is great! I can now if need to make more edits in the Office products. This is not in PDFelement 5.
I am reviewing the new version 6 on a Mac with the latest operating system (High Sierra) and am a mouse-centric and not keyboard commands person.
In summary, I would buy this software and the update for me means an update to PDFelement 6.
Filling in PDF documents on the computer instead of handwriting all the information. The benefits have been better documentation and readable text on a PDF form.
Thank you for the detailed review. I'm glad that there are some improvements that you like.
Specifically, what are some of the problems that you are encountering with check marks on PDFelement 6? If this issue has been persisting, we would like to look into it!
"Easy to use, but powerful PDF editor."
PDFelement 6 Pro is a very intuitive and powerful PDF editor that does everything I have needed it to do in order to edit and modify my PDF documents in a very efficient and effective manner. It has surpassed my expectations in terms of easy of use and power when editing PDF documents. I have used other PDF editor programs as well as PDFelement 6 Pro and, while all of them have powerful editing capabilities, PDFelement 6 Pro is easier and more intuitive to use without sacrificing valuable features. This is a great program which should satisfy the needs of virtually all users and is well worth the moderate cost.
Up to this point I have found nothing that I dislike about PDFelement 6 Pro. It has met and exceeded my expectations. There was a bit of a learning curve regarding the command buttons in the program when I first began using the program, but they were easily learned in a short period of time and any errors made in editing any PDF are very easily corrected with PDFelement 6 Pro if one is unhappy with the result.
Give the trial version a try and you will be very happy about the ease and depth of PDFelement.
I am using PDFelement 6 Pro to edit all types of PDF documents. The ease of adding, deleting, modifying text, and adding images to documents has greatly reduced the time and effort involved in these processes, resulting in very efficient, effective, and professional end result.
"A good alternative to Adobe Acrobat"
PDF Element 6 is easy to use, its intuitive and can quickly be learnt. It's faster than the previous version.
Compared to the previous version, the user interface has improved a lot - thanks.
- Fast OCR detection, also supports image-based PDFs.
- personal comments with notes or text box.
- Creating forms is now a simple process.
- very cheap price compared to Adobe Acrobat.
In summary: PDFelement 6.x is a very good software with extensive functions for professional work.
PDFelement has an unbeatable price-performance ratio. The software is for me a high quality alternative to expensive Adobe products.
I couldn't find anything I did not like about the program. Version 5 errors have been fixed in version 6.
This software is excellent, extensive and fast. My recommendation for PDF applications.
"PDFelement 6 Pro is a substantial improvement on the previous PDFelement 5"
I have been using the PDFelement 5 for several years. Version 6 Pro has a better interface. It is also more intutitive and compared to competitors like Adobe it is simler to navigate.
I like adding text with ease, the almost flawless oening of scanned documents, making text and picture amendments. Also converting the word and pdf files are easier. It keeps the tables and charts in proper place and makes it easier to edit tham according to text I edit.
In filling some forms it still has some difficulty in marking the boxes which could be improved. When opening documents from file is enlarges them and it is with extra effort to make them smaller to edit or see. This can be improved.
Switch and use. It is a very useful and practical pdf tool.
I often write articles which need to be shared in PDF version. Wityh 6 Pro I can productively do this. Furthermore I use the OCR in foreign languages quite often.
Thank you for your feedback, I'm glad to see that you enjoy PDFelement's new interface.
To clarify, do you find that opening the file in external programs enlarges the check boxes automatically?
"You need PDFelement 6. The PDF program for the cost I've worked with!"
Much cleaner than previous version and the speed is better than previous version. The interface is definitely more modern and functions as well as the previous version. The overall look and feel are very professional and allow the user to do just about anything they would want with a pdf file.
It does everything I expected only better than the previous version. I use the expensive Adobe version at work and this is as good if not better. I can't image working without it on my projects.
It does everything as advertised and the price is unbelievable. I use constantly and it the best product I've used for the price. As a CPA I can't give PDF Element enough kudos for how well it works!
As an accountant I use it quite a bit to fix reports and add items to pdf's that are not editable after download. It's as good as adobe at a fraction of the cost. Awesome product! The ability to take multiple pdf files and combine them into on complete package report is invaluable for someone like me. Before I have to scan the pages and create a pdf the was too large and bulky to be functional or usable to my end user. Your product allows me to do things I never thought possible for the price and my end user are happy too. I love a win-win!
"Upgraded to PDFelement 6 Pro, well worth it!"
It didn't take me long to be able to maneuver around within this program. Set it up as my primary pdf file viewer and away I went!
I was easily able to convert a pdf file and edit it as well. I Love the ease of adding text to scanned documents, and watermarks to personal business documents. Being able to combine multiple documents is easy to do as well.
I love the ease of just opening the program and then selecting documents from the history to open. Very helpful, and easier than finding the document in my files and then opening.
I dislike that whenever a pdf file is opened, it is zoomed in to around 150% or more....I am constantly decreasing the viewing size back to 100%. I will have to use this product even more to come up with anything else negative/constructive feedback wise.
Change to PDFelement....it is easy to use!
Just using it as my primary pdf viewer, and editor.
"Best PDF Tool I've used yet!"
PDF Element Pro 6 takes the limitations off of PDFs. It allows me to work with these documents in a much easier way as if they were word processing documents. I find it is much more user-friendly for completing fillable PDF forms which can sometimes be difficult as well. I often use PDF Element Pro 6 to convert PDFs i to word documents or Excel documents with ease and it saves me a lot of time trying to transcribe or otherwise work with the information on a PDF.
I haven't found anything I dislike about PDF Element Pro 6, except that my coworkers do not have the program so now they email me files to convert and send back to them!
It took me a little while to get to know how to use PDF Element Pro 6, so don't underestimate the learning curve. It is a powerful piece of software that can accomplish a lot for you!
The value of an effective and efficient tool to convert PDFs in to spreadsheet or word processing documents is invaluable. It saves everyone in my office a lot of time and we are able to use the valuable information stored in PDFs much easier.
"Very nice App to manage PDF documents"
It's very easy to use, and it has all the features I usually need for managing and editing PDF documents. Tools are very intuitive, you can start using the app as soon as you install it without having to read any instructions. I especially like the Edit function, because it's easy to manage each paragraph, add new text and/or images. You can easily move paragraphs up/down and insert new ones. Managing pages is also very easy; you can extract or insert pages very fast.
Nothing at this time. I have been able to do everything I have needed.
Use the trial version first, so you will know if it really meets all your expectations.
I usually have to edit PDF documents like contracts, manuals, instruction sheets. I also have to join or split documents, and PDF Element let me do all these tasks very easily and fast.
I've been using PDFelement for a few years and have just tried the upgrade to PDFelement6. What I love is that it works seamlessly with any file I throw at it and most importantly for me, does a great job of extraction both for Word and Excel files. Conversion to Powerpoint is also great although I don't personally use this feature as much.
The other thing I really like about PDFelement is how easy it is to use the page extraction and insertion features as well as editing text. I've found that at times other software can't dismantle a table or elements in a pdf while PDFelement can still extract everything I need from it, so while it was the last pdf editor I used to go to now it's the first one I go to.
Just use it. Try out the trial software and like I did you'll find yourself upgrading super quickly!
Extracting data from tables is my biggest use of PDFelement and at times, slides to powerpoint, although it's mainly data that I need to pull from tables for reports & visualisations, and it saves a lot of time & grief for me.
"Meets and Exceeds My Needs for Every Aspect of PDF Management "
User friendly interface. Clean and well laid out making for a good overall user experience. It's easy to navigate and quite intuitive making it easy to find the most important options. Fast and accurate. Definite improvement over previous version.
What is there to dislike, it does everything I need it to. It seem's to be robust and stable which is a great improvement from the last version.
It's a great program. The developers are working hard to meet all the requirements. It can only get better as they go forward. Version 5 definitely had issues but Version 6 is a vast improvement! I am confident that if they continue on this path they will become the industry leader in PDF management! Move over Adobe there's a new PDF champ in town. I have become quite impressed with Wondershare products over the last few years. I also use Filmora for video editing and am enjoying each new version as they are always improving!
I edit, fill in and sign PDF files regularly,. I use it to convert my Word Doc files to PDF format. It is a great benefit to be able to manage all my PDF files in the same place.
"PDF Element is a Great Editor and Viewer"
It's fast and offers a lot of editing features. Sometimes, software that does more than just view files takes too long to load for everyday use. PDF Element isn't like this, so it's really convenient for everyday use as a viewer or an editor.
I wish it offered dark modes. It's personal preference, but I don't like bright white windows on my screen. It's annoying to use at night. Also, I was really disappointed when considering an upgrade that I could not upgrade to the other platform (I own PDF Element 5 for Mac but wanted to switch over to the PC version going forward as I've switched platforms.) I was disappointed to learn that there was no upgrade path for this.
I own a copy of PDF Element 5 that I've been using for several years. The user interface for version 6 is much cleaner and it's priced very competitively vs. other similar software on the market.
It makes managing lease documents much easier because I combine content from multiple sources, and it's just easier to do as a PDF. PDF Element lets me do this and still make final tweaks and edits.
Thanks for the feedback, Trent.
I really like the idea for dark modes, as it's easier on the eyes. I'll forward both suggestions to the team! Let us know if you have any other feedback.
The easy use, and a variety of handy options.
Not much - but one thing in the previous version was the limit to 15 open files.
If you are looking for an application that is useful, versatile and offer you good functionality this might be it. I have stopped using other PDF readers and this is what I stick to now, and also for editing PDF files. There are likely additional functions, but the ones available here are the ones required for me in my role as a teacher and administrator in higher education - to be able to easy make changes in some previously uneditable files, etc. What takes plenty of time for some colleagues is an easy and quick fix, using this software. At times I ask myself what amounts of times the application has saved me - and the answer is many hours, every month.
It is helpful in different ways, for example when managing files for student groups.
"ROBERT KNAUER LIKES PDF Element6 software"
PDFElement6 is so far superior to Adobe for the price and its versatility. In pretty much enables me to do everything Full Adobe allowed me to do, but at a much lower price.
I love that it is menu driven enabling me to view the screen much like Windows 10 to easily find what I am looking for....There is literally nothing I don't like about it except giving me more functionality than Adobe. For what Element6 gives me I am happy.
Before spending lots of hard earned money on Adobe you should give PDFelement6 a try for the money you simply cannot beat it.
I love the fact that I can cut, copy, past and make changes along with attaching other documents to my project on the fly. For the fact it makes me fully productive and gives me the ability to easily save and send PDF conversions to others gives me the tool I need to help teach my negotiation classes.I love the versatility, ease of use and convenience this product provides me with to do my work.
The ease of editing pdf files is clearly the thing that drew me initially to PDFelement. It has saved me hundreds of hours by not having to recreate every pdf doc over the years.
Although intuitive, I'd still like to have some of the image tools enhanced so that removing and adding images from things like banners and footers was simpler.
It has become a true 'go-to' tool for our business. Allowing us to focus on our content, creation of results and selling those outcomes rather than spending 100's of hours trying to figure out creatives that means hiring designers constantly to tweak and test tons of options and testing.
I am able to use creative marketing pieces and customize them to our current offerings and timeframes. Knowing our market, offers and how to sell is at a very high level. Creating the creative and design aspects are great to be able to implement and enhance.
Thank you for your feedback regarding additional functionalities for image tools. Aside from removing and adding images on banner and footers, is there anything else you would like to see on PDFelement?
"Versatile Easy to Use PDF Editor"
PDF Element is so easy to use makes it the primary reason I chose to use it for business and home tasks. Removing or editing text is a breeze and one of the best features is the ability to remove or extract pages from a document. Everything on the screen is laid out in a very simple manner so it takes little if any time to get right into working with the program.
Very robust and up to date. I had the full Adobe but found it too costly to upgrade. This is much more streamlined and easy to use!
When I send a PDF Element file, all others can see it perfectly in their Adobe format. Being able to send something from PDF Element that others can see in their desired format is a great benefit. I always had Adobe reader crashing on my and hanging up my computer.
The interface in PDF Element 6 has been streamlined throughout and feels more responsive with use. It is very intuitive and easy to navigate.
The simple interface, and easy navigation do not mean a lack of features though. I find PDF Element to be capable of all my PDF needs. I can quickly combine multiple files into a single PDF allowing me to share projects containing a variety of file types easily with colleagues.
PDF ELement doesn't just stop with creation, or converting other file types though. The OCR integration makes it a very powerful tool to turn scanned documents into an easy to edit document.
The ability to edit any PDF file makes it an invaluable tool for me on a regular basis.
I made the switch from Acrobat over a year ago, and have not missed it since. PDF Element is an excellent replacement at a much more attractive price. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an alternative.
The cost savings realized with PDF ELement, without having to give up features have made this software an invaluable asset.
"Easy to use for pdf manipulation"
The appearance of PDFelement 6 is much cleaner then version 5. The speed in obtain the files is fast and the changes can be made very quickly. I use it to amend pdf's and with the OCR installed it is very easy. I also use it to convert pdf's to word documents and it does that easily as well. Finally, I use it to rearrange documents within a pdf and in my line of work that is priceless. PDFelement is the easiest system that I have used for that process. This is by far the easiest system that I have used.
I have run into situation where the layout of the document has been changed when converting to a word format. I do not know for sure that it is a pdfelement problem but I also do not know that it isn't.
"It was the easiest conversion program I have every used"
I haven't used it enough to find any things about it I don't like yet. As I to use it more I may or may not come up with any things I dislike and I promise I will let you know.
I have to created leases for my rentals and PDFelement makes that a breeze. I haven't used it enough yet, since I am switching from another program. Most of the documents I need in my real estate business come as PDF's as protection. They cannot be edited unless converted, and with PDFelement, they are easily converted. As I use it more I will be able to realize more benefits and perhaps some issues.
"Save Time and Money... Wow!"
What I like the best is how simple everything is now.
Like I said, I love the new layout and everything about it is so different, in a good way.
I would highly recommend... BIG TIME!
I solved many problems. I don't have to spend money and hire a professional, I'm the professional using the PDF Element 6. It's absolutely perfect for my business needs. The changes are AWESOME indeed... What I really love is how simple it is to do anything I want inside of the software. For example, when I get ready to place page numbers on all of my pages, it's simple and very easy. Also, when I get ready to put links into my headers and footers, it's a snap. I love it. I would love it if the save feature were a little bit bigger, so I'm not looking for it, however, my eye site is not what it used to be. I love the fact that there is a huge improvement over the last product. Everything seems to be more user-friendly and easy to use. There is no doubt in my mind that I will be using PDF Element 6 a lot more than the other version. Place images inside of your documents is also another great feature. You can also move it around anywhere inside of your document and it's the best that I've seen in the market, no doubt. I will use it almost daily when I'm working on my coaching programs and getting my products online. It saves so much money and time that I can continue to spend with my family and friends. Let's don't forget the amount of time I can spend in the air, you see, I'm a pilot and I enjoy as much time in the plane as possible. PDF Element 6 is the best as far as I'm concerned. I would highly recommend this to all of my friends and business associates. Huge improvement over the last version. I've use other pdf software and this truly is the best out there. I would even go as far as buying this for a business friend, no doubt, that I would. Like I said before. It saves so much money and time that it is worth the cost easily. I can hardly wait to see what in the world they will do with the next version. I can't imagine what improvements they could do to make it any better. The most AWESOME PDF software on the market today, no kidding. I've been in online marketing for over 20 years and software like this is a life saver for sure. You can start a project and then finish it up very quickly because it's so simple and easy to use. Everyone knows that time and money is a key factor in building your business. I create and market my own products. Years ago you would have to hire someone just to put links into your documents, however, with the use of the PDF Element, you can do it in a matters of minutes. I love it and will be very excited about all of the new features I can now use inside of the newest version. My name is Robert Phillips and I highly recommend this software. I will help you in anything to get ready to create.
PDF Element is an incredible tool. It's ability to edit directly in pdf documents has saved me many hours of painstaking labour. Similarly, being able to seemlessly convert pdf documents to Word and Excel has helped me provide an efficient and cost effective service to my clients.
Spending some time getting to know all the features and functionality in PDF Element is definitely worth the effort. I originally purchased the software as a quick fix to a problem I was having but over time I have learnt more and more about the product and every time I use it I become more impressed.
Editing pdf documents directly and converting pdf's to word and excel has saved me many many hours of boring and frustrating work.
"Easy, Fun and great links with MS Office"
I started with PDF Element 5 to use OCR (Czech and English texts) which worked perfectly. Than I started with the 6 version and started to admire it because of the interconnection and easy collaboration with the MS Office. The file transferability is great, even from pdf to word, or from excel to pdf, very cool graphics interface and work with various elements on the page - pictures, forms, windows, passwords, watermarks, direct scan to OCR, OCR outputs and previews.
"Excellent software for editing pdf files and converting them"
I mainly use the software for editing pdf files and exporting them to excel and word documents. It does an amazing job for me. I also occasionally use it to merge files or split them and it works quite well for me. It has saved me time all the time.
I am currently using version 5 which sometimes doesn't convert images properly. This happens to the images like logo etc in the document which gets converted to tiny images and some text in them. However this is not a big problem for me as after conversion, I am always able to add the images again to resemble the original one.
It's a great software. I was struggling with converting pdf files and since I found PDFElement, life is much easier. It's definitely a winner for me.
We send and receive a lot of PDF files and this helps us editing/modifying them if we need to. It's much easier to edit pdf files in PDFElement than any other software. I am liking it. It also helps in password protecting the PDF files, move text and images around etc. Overall it does many good things for us and we as business quite liking it.
"Absolutely user friendly and make working with PDF fun!"
Honestly I can't point out anything that I dislike. Looking forward to new updates making this experience even better.
Overall great product that serves your needs working with PDF.
The batch processing is an awesome advantage. I use it on a Mac and love the user interface. If you work with PDFs you need to have a powerful software to be able to edit PDFs and convert or extract data from it. PDFelement does all of that plus many more awesome capabilities.
Je suis très satisfaite de l'utilisation quotidienne du PDFelement Pro.
La nouvelle interface est simple et bien faite...et elle te donne une belle lisibilité.
Les options OCR sont bien surtout le traitement des PDF en français et Anglais.
Avec PDFelement la conversion de mes documents PDF en Formats PPT et DOC est devenue très facile et bien maitrisable.
mon utilisation de PDFelement pendant une durée de 9 mois ma montre que c'est un éditeur de PDF bien a adopté et de recommander aux utilisateurs. C'est pour quoi j'ai bien recommande ce logiciel à mes amies et mes collègues de travail.
The clean and tidy user interface offers a lot of design possibilities under the hood.
Convert encrypted PDF file to Word, Excel, PPT and other file types, allowing further editing, copying and printing.
Including OCR in the Pro version which is very interesting if searchable documents are needed.
PDF Word, Excel, PPT, images, text, text, EPUB ebooks, HTML and more.
Supported image formats are JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP and TIFF.
OCR technology also supports image-based PDFs.
Convert up to 200 PDFs in one step and 3 minutes.
Comment with sticky notes or text box. Brighten up important text. Provide PDF with stamps. All of them are compatible with Acrobat and other popular programs.
Add secure passwords to prevent unauthorized opening, copying, editing, extracting and printing of your document.
Compress PDF files to a perfect size in good quality to email or upload them to the Internet. Now resize PDFs in seconds.
Great price when compared to Adobe.
I couldn't find anything. Surely there is always room for improvement, but I can't complain.
On Windows, PDFelement is absolutely great and intuitive. I like the design very much and despite the many functions it looks very tidy. If you are looking for a powerful pDF editor, this is the right place.
I rather privately very much solve the PDF processing for documents, invoices, scripts.
You can easily create, edit, print pdf files. Also adding images and text is easy. Easy to print, easy to prepare documents and forms. I recommend it for every type of user.
The menu bar can be smaller than the current version. The font implementation can be improved. Also, OCR can work more smoothly with the other languages than English such as Dutch or Turkish. It may also provide online translation documents from different languages.
Cost effective pdf solution for mid-sized companies. It has all the required features for business owners such as creating, editing pf files and also print features.
Thank you for your feedback! Which languages do you find difficult to work with in terms of our OCR?
Jose de la Cruz D.
Es una interfaz rapida y facil de utilizar, aunque no tengas experiencia, para el trabajo de oficina o el trabajo de la escuela te permite lograr resultados rápidos al poder guardar y exportar en diferentes formatos.
PDFelement is fast, robust and beautiful PDF editor for Mac and Windows.
Through multiple pdf file processing mode (=Work with Batch Processing) and the commenting tools, highlights and text I was able to accelerate my work and highlight the important elements in my documents.
"Easy to use and a good step forward from PDF Element 5"
The new menus are easy to use and understand - I sometimes struggled to find the tool I needed when using the 5th edition of PDF Element but the new format and layout seems more logical and certainly easier to understand.
The conversion tools are the best in the market (I often use the PDF to Excel conversion tool and it provides results which can be relied upon - which cannot be said for any of the other products I've tried over the last few years).
The conversion to Word tool, whilst improved still struggles to provide a Word document which mirrors the PDF. The text seems to be slightly misaligned on each row which can render the whole conversion unusable.
This product is certainly worth a try if you want a reliable, affordable product for the editing of PDF files and conversion into Microsoft Office formats.
In our business we sometimes get sent PDFs of information which can run into multiple pages. Using the PDF to Excel converter, we can literally save ourselves hours of work (so the entire price of the product can be recovered in the first hour of use... and the multiple other hours it saves represent pure profit)!
Glad to see that you saw an improvement between PDFelement 5 and PDFelement 6. I appreciate the feedback on the PDF to Word confusion - let me know if there has been any improvement in the last few updates!
"Convert PDFs to do what you need them to do!"
I love being able to edit product catalogs and documents that come to me for my business!! I have been able to use this program to make individual catalogs for dealers and to not need to print out, write in, and then scan in pdf documents that need to be filled out.
Sometimes it can be difficult to figure out the layers and to get things in just the right spot. But I'm on a learning curve, and that's more me than the program. On one catalog I've had a horrendous time getting a black box to print around my business name. I could've asked for help with that, but I didn't.
This makes more sense to me than Adobe. The pricing is worth what you get. It's a great value, and it helps flow tremendously.
Getting the word out through customized catalogs for my dealers and for my business. Our basic product stays the same, but additions and price changes happen each year.
"Easy to use PDF managing software"
PDF Element is really easy to use, its logic is very intuitive and can quickly be learnt.
I haven't found anything that I really dislike about the software. Occasionally the formatting of documents converted to Word can be a little complex.Comparing it to others I have found it very straightforward.
If you want a very easy to use product for handling all aspects of PDF management, this is the product for you. Learning time is short and users who are not familiar with this type of software can quickly learn to use it.
Its ease off use makes it readily useable by many people in the office who may only need to use it occasionally. It makes all handling of PDF documents , from signatures, editing and collating very straightforward. I use it a lot for putting separate PDF documents together into a single document. Its ability to quickly converts PDFs to Word and Excel is an excellent feature.
"PDF Element 6 Review1- James Dooley"
"Robust PDF editing software - reasonably priced to boot"
I particularly like the wide variety of commenting options available. Makes it quick and easy to mark up shared business documents. These tools seem more responsive in version 6 than in previous versions. Also, when inserting pages, the program stays on the "Page" tab, making it faster to insert other pages. In earlier versions, you had to click the Page tab upon every separate insertion.
I can't find much to dislike. A minor glitch: when filling a PDF form field using Courier font, it will look OK on screen, but when printed out, words are broken in random places at the right margin. Other fonts don't exhibit this, but the first line of a paragraph "returns" far short of the right margin. Hopefully they'll get this fixed in a future update.
We do lots of combining of multiple PDFs pulled from separate documents. We also create fillable forms, and send documents around for markup or comments. PDF Element makes short work of these tasks.
"Best PDF tool ever, Easy to use and work with PDF documents"
Easy to use and you can edit PDF file with PDFelement like Microsoft Word. It helps you a lot to save your time. Moreover, it help you to create fillable PDF form. With Form Field Recognition feature. The software will auto recognize and create interactive form fill for you. You can edit them later with ease of use. And with the Data Extraction, you can extract data from form fields or marked PDF to csv file.
Moreover, you can add secure passwords to prevent unauthorized opening, copying, editing, extracting and printing of your document. You can export PDF document to Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel that help you save more time and very effective.
To be honest, currently I cannot find any negative issues of PDFelement that should be raised for change or correct.
I recommend PDFelement to others who considering to try.
For me, It is very easy to create fillable PDF forms. It's great.

Hi there! Are you looking to implement a solution like PDFelement?

lowercased:
create, edit, convert, annotate, protect, merge, watermark, compress, and sign pdf files in a better way.
pdf element is an ideal tool for the creation and edition of pdf files, the creation of pdf documents is simple, and fast, you can create files based on any other document, from text files, images, among other types of documents, the editing of these files is very easy, it is a tool that any person of any age, with basic knowledge of informatics, can use at will.
the text sources are too limited, i think that an application like this should have other types of text sources, but use the same as many text processors, besides the text centering tools are not automatic, you must center everything to measure, and it is not always perfect, they should be predetermined, to have more perfect documents, in different types of sizes and types of sheets.
in our school we use hundreds of digital documents, which we have developed with pdf element, now we have an immense digital library that grows daily, with the continued digitization of text and documents, thanks to this we have a complete library of all types of information available for our students and teachers.
"great pdf reader in very less price"
the user interface of this software is totally inspired by the ms word, which i like very much also they have all the feature to edit a pdf or create a pdf and very usefull tool for me that in one click i convert pdf to word, excel, powerpoint etc which i use very much.the most best part of this software for all is that they take one time subscription fees which is very low compare to other software.they update their software very fast.they have also ocr feature.
what i dislike about this software is that you cannot able to add custom created tool in this software.like extra add-on or feature.
i recommend all people to use this software because it is very low price and you get all the features.
"best alternative to adobe acrobat"
the user interface is really great, the tools it provides makes it easy to work with any pdfs and it has really amazing ocr capabilities ! i really love the drawing tools, it really helps me when reviewing documents and taking notes in class. really simple to add quick pop up style notes, simply double click !
they are no shortcuts to go on about your way trough the different actions you can do. as a power user i always appreciate such things. you can't zoom in/out with your trackpad (pinch to zoom) gestures. kinda strange as most application (on macos) at least let's you do that.
if the price scares you, look at other professional pdf editors/viewers that offer this level of tools for free and the top of the line ocr capabilities for the price, you won't find anything that good. most of the tools you can use are 80$+ or have subscription fees. very good bang for you buck.
annotate, add information and draw on top of the pdfs for correction demands, code reviews and creating/modifying contracts to be sent and signed by my clients.
i also use it for school when reviewing and taking notes in class for the lectures. much faster and time saver for taking notes and drawing.
like you, i also appreciate shortcut keys - it beats needing to use my mouse/tracking pad! we have a few shortcut keys available, but there is currently no guide on which key combinations trigger what. we are launching our new blog soon so i'll look into creating a blog post around that.
in response to your feedback on the zoom in/out function: currently, the way to zoom in and out is using command and -/+, but using the trackpad to pinch is a function that we should consider.
i like that the user interface is so much like microsoft office. it feels like you are in part of the office suite. i consider myself to be a power user and i have not run into an issue of not having a feature or tool that isn't available. i also like that pdfelement is nearly 20% of the cost of adobe acrobat professional. the auto form feature, where the ocr creates the form fields automatically is a real time-saver. the ocr is superior to that of many pdf editors with ocr features. the ocr is more accurate.
the logo image in the custom signature block is not editable; you can disable but not change the logo. there does not seem to be a way for you to set the default size of a pdf when you first open pdf to view.
if you want the most used features with the likes of adobe acrobat pro without the hefty price tag then pdfelement is a serious alternative.
i have saved a lot of time with file conversion from pdf to word and making the pdf searchable and editable without having to import it into ms word. the ability to protect and having legally acceptable documents through electronic and digital signatures allows me to sign and send documents without having to print, handwrite my signature and scan back to pdf and then email a document saving time and not wasting paper and ink.
we're glad to hear that pdfelement is helping you work efficiently and at an affordable cost!
i saw that you had posted the same concern in the community forum about the custom signature block - we have the option to select "imported graphic" under "configure graphic". you can upload your own logo, then deselect "logo" under "configure text" to have only your logo and your digital signer present. let me know if this is what you're looking for, or if you have suggestions on how to make this process more intuitive.
"easiest software to get many things done on pdf"
i can't stress enough about the price. when i wanted a pdf editor, i tried many.
each free tool was introducing some form of additional artifact and the commercial tools like acrobat are too pricey for what they are worth. when i tried pdf elements pro, i was blown away.
there are no side effects to changing text. it is so simple to edit. ocr feature is a bonus.
i couldn't find where to have more text formatting features like underline etc.
another issue is that when the text is being added it used to be wrapped in the bounding box and because of which it used to jump across lines. i prefer if the bounding box increases if there is whitespace.
i wish this product has ability to remove security once we know the open password. we have to rely on another software from same company.
small problem is that some fonts have mis-sized characters. if i type few characters it shows a warning and if i replace it with different character the warning beside bounding box disappears.
definitely go for it. the product is double the worth of its price easily. there won't be minor side effects and you don't have to rely on online convertors where you don't have control on your data.
mostly editing pdf files, add my own bookmarks. i had to edit some old documents of mine earlier and with this software it has been breeze. editing slides rendered as pdfs.
"easy to use and highly functional pdf alternative, at a very affordable cost."
this software provides me with all the functionality that i need, and makes it really easy to use with its highly intuitive user interface. it is a very attractive and affordable alternative to other high end pdf products, and without "cutting corners". it's one of those very rare cases where you actually get more than what you paid for, believe me!
dislike? well, so far, in terms of " disliking" , there is absolutely nothing that i dislike about this pdf product. now, there is always room for improving, but's that is another story.
you should try this product! there is absolutely nothing to loose, because you are going to get your work done, and, in addition, more than possible, i believe that it is going to be highly probable that you are going to fall in love with it! give it a try!
so far, i have been using it solely for sending and protecting documents through emails and simple form processing.
the ocr is excellent in converting scanned documents accurately and quickly. the software is intuitive and easy to manage. there are excellent help features included with the software. the price was very good for the complexity and usage of this product.
there are a few times when editing a pdf that it is difficult to highlight a specific area. however, that may be due to this being fairly new to me.
when you compare pdfelement to other similar software, you will find that it offers more features for a lower price. it is also not clunky is working with editing, but offers great features to make the work easy and efficient.
the software is offering the ability to take older documents, only available in paper form and change them to digital images that can be altered. this is especially helpful for those needing to update your business' policies and notes.
"you get what you want from it...just say once.. pdf element is there to help you every time."
user friendly. easy to use. excellent product and i was looking for quick way to edit and create pdf and re-edit documents. this has everything and its a package in itself without any ifs and buts. just get the things rolling. initially, i was using some nitro pdf, but it was creating a problems for me while saving the documents, so i decided to buy this software and since then no looking back.
sometimes, it opens files in two different windows, i don't know why. some times when i use the arrow keys to move between the fields it jumps to different pages. please resolve this issue. not sure, it is because of this software of the problem with the fillable form.
anyone can trust this software from efficiency and productivity point of view. easy to use but with lot of unexplored features. editing, converting, saving, etc... i use this program to do just about everything possible.
thanks for sharing! i would like to clarify a few things with you, as we would like to look into these issues!
1) what you mean when you note that the software opens the file in two different windows? does the software open twice simultaneously?
2) and does the arrow key issue happen no matter which form fields you toggle between?
3) are you on windows or mac?
"an easy to handle pdf application"
the application is light-weight and hence launches pretty fast. the user-interface is simple, yet powerful and convenient. the ocr function seems as effective as that of any other software in the market (i have used acrobat reader, nitro pdf and nuance power pdf).
it will be nice to have an ms word extension. while creating pdf's from word docs, the bookmarks are not carried on automatically from the word file.
1. acrobat is good but uses much system memory which affects the overall performance. further, it is very costly.
2. foxit phantom is lightweight but the ocr recognition is not up to mark.
3. nuance power pdf and nitro pdf have lots of additional features but the interface is cluttered. for example, identifying and using a highlighted text is very difficult in power pdf as they have put the panel right below the text.
4. the only con i have encountered with pdfelement so far is the absence of an extension for ms word.
pdfelement has been extremely helpful in converting pdf to other formats without the loss of quality. moreover, the form templates have reduced the workload while organising multiple surveys under the same project.
thank you for such a detailed review - it's clear that you're an experienced user of pdf solutions software and i really appreciate the time you took to share your insights.
if you ever have any recommendations or suggestions for pdfelement, feel free to drop us a note!
"best pdf program that i have ever used!"
i love how easy it is to edit and convert documents into pdf. it makes it so easy for an office that is fast paced and i do not have to worry about having a slow program. i will and already highly recommend this program to all businesses that would need to have it. i have used several different ones in the past and this by far has been the best that i have seen and used.
i do not have anything to dislike about the program. i guess the only thing could be that there is nothing wrong with it yet. i did have one instance where i tried to edit in the pdf program and it completely moved my line all out of sorts. i tried to edit it again but did the same thing. i ended up going to the word document and changing it and then resaving as a pdf document. i haven't tried it again but i hope it does not do it again in the future.
i would highly recommend this program for a company that needs a program to edit and convert files into pdf with ease.
editing, converting, saving, etc... i use this program to do just about everything possible. when i download applications, i upload them into pdf. when they are in pdf, i am still able to edit as i please with no issues at all.
"simple tool that actually works"
how you can actually edit a document just like word, and then are able to generate a professional looking pdf, very clean and crisp. i love also how it doesn't take up so much space. i'm no expert in memory consumption but i've used other apps before and the spammy of the app has always made me weary of other apps. what i can share is this app is spam free from my usage. it just let me do the job and do it fast.
i don't have really anything to say i don't like about this product, its really a simple product to use which i love. maybe a better on boarding video to use the product would help.
i need a quick way to edit and create pdf and re-edit documents. this tool allowed me to do that. it was quit amazing to see how user friendly this product was. i was expecting more difficulty since it was a paid product and one that was recommended to me by a friend who spoke very highly of this product. the time it takes me now to create a draft, print out a pdf and then having to go back and make edits to it has saved me so much time in my daily work. it has added a level of efficiency to my business as well.
thank you for your feedback, i'm happy that our editing capabilities suits your needs! i like you point about an on boarding video - i feel that creating more resources that people can look to for self-help would make the learning curve a lot lower. we're currently in the process of creating additional youtube tutorials and re-launching our blog, so if you have any other suggestions please let us know!
"great solution for a mid sized business"
the software has a lot of power but is also incredible simple to use. ease of use is a big concern for us because we have several people who could use the software if they understand how to. the interface does a really nice job of giving you control as well as functionality.
i haven't really found a lot of disadvantges. i had to use free versions of other software prior to having this one so it is like driving a cadillac.
when you don't want to have to pay a monthly fee to use the software on top of the cost to purchase it initially this would be the best option for you. it is a great option for a company that doesn't have a primary need for a full suite of pdf software but wants it to work when you need it. it has all of the features even a more advanced user would need in a format that is not intimidating to the average user.
increased integration between our old and new systems. this gives us the ability to transform the majority of our old paper forms into a pdf that we can edit and use in our new system. a big positive is that the customer receive a consistent experience by seeing the same forms with the only difference being this one is on an ipad vs. the other one being made from dead tree's.
"a very professional package, at a very reasonable price."
easy to use and powerful pdf software that covers all my day-to-day requirements. it has a well thought out metro-style start page so you can choose exactly what you want to do, an uncluttered user interface, strong content-editing tools, easy page manipulation, and built in ocr capabilities. it is a very professional package, at a very reasonable price.
i would really like page/document flattening capabilities.
consider extending the licence to cover 3 devices.
if you are looking for an easy to use, professional pdf software at a reasonable price then try pdf element - you won't be disappointed.
update after using the software for more than a year - it really is good software. suggestions are taked seriously and acted on, and the help team are super responsive.
i chose pdfelement after comparing many pdf editors. this one is well designed, get (almost) all the features i need and is a very good value for the money spent. user interface is friendly and well designed. the documents scanning feature is well thought. file conversion .xls, .doc, ..) is useful and well done. file optimization is easy and efficient.
no outlook preview yet (this feature seems to be under development). also, when adding comments to a document, i have to select add a comment for each new comment. i would prefer that the comment function stays selected.
so far the best pdf editing software that i have used.
print to pdf, edit pdf, optimize pdf size (i use the web size a lot in order to get the smallest file size, and the file still looks great), and more, all in one software.
"a beautiful update to a great application"
i like a lot about this version of pdf element 6. but, the most pleasing is the user interface. in version 5, the tools were presented in a non-intuitive way, making it a bit confusing to edit documents and create forms. in version 6 the interface has been overhauled to my delight. at first glance, the tools are in the same place, but the difference is that they standout better for easy location. as a mac user, i also appreciate the tabs used the separate the tool functions. it's as familiar as using pages or keynote. kudos to the developers!
to be honest, during my evaluation, i did not find a single thing to dislike.
for the price and capabilities provided, i highly recommend pdfelement. it's a very capable pdf editor for an amazing price. i've been using it since version 5, and version 6 is even better!
when filling out expense reports, they are provided in pdf format, but are not fillable. with pdfelement, that's no problem. the editing capability allows me to add my relevant text in a font of my choice, and position it perfectly. it's a real time saver!
"when a product exceeds your expectations"
pdfelement is the best software i have ever used to edit a pdf file, it made my experience so pelasant, simple ways to edit a file and add whatever you like to, its very reliable & straight forward, i recommend everyone to give it a try and see for them selves, never again worry about your hand writing as this software is made to make you fill & print any pdf file with ease and make it look like a pro.
i first tried it as a trial and in no time i downloaded it again and i am looking for a pro version.
dont hesitate its worth every penny.
it is the best aoftware you will ever find in the market, ease of use, clean and made to make you look like a pro when you fill a form.
no more hand writing and it can recognize any form i believe.
"pdf element 6 mac software review"
1.	all the drop-down tools that are familiar with using mac software is almost gone. the idea is to go to toolbars with descriptive text underneath each command.
2.	change text change is simpler in 6 than in 5. 6 allows the user the ability to change multiple items on one panel and not clicking another icon for the information.
3.	the ability to convert the pdf file to microsoft word, powerpoint and excel is great! i can now if need to make more edits in the office products. this is not in pdfelement 5.
i am reviewing the new version 6 on a mac with the latest operating system (high sierra) and am a mouse-centric and not keyboard commands person.
in summary, i would buy this software and the update for me means an update to pdfelement 6.
filling in pdf documents on the computer instead of handwriting all the information. the benefits have been better documentation and readable text on a pdf form.
thank you for the detailed review. i'm glad that there are some improvements that you like.
specifically, what are some of the problems that you are encountering with check marks on pdfelement 6? if this issue has been persisting, we would like to look into it!
"easy to use, but powerful pdf editor."
pdfelement 6 pro is a very intuitive and powerful pdf editor that does everything i have needed it to do in order to edit and modify my pdf documents in a very efficient and effective manner. it has surpassed my expectations in terms of easy of use and power when editing pdf documents. i have used other pdf editor programs as well as pdfelement 6 pro and, while all of them have powerful editing capabilities, pdfelement 6 pro is easier and more intuitive to use without sacrificing valuable features. this is a great program which should satisfy the needs of virtually all users and is well worth the moderate cost.
up to this point i have found nothing that i dislike about pdfelement 6 pro. it has met and exceeded my expectations. there was a bit of a learning curve regarding the command buttons in the program when i first began using the program, but they were easily learned in a short period of time and any errors made in editing any pdf are very easily corrected with pdfelement 6 pro if one is unhappy with the result.
give the trial version a try and you will be very happy about the ease and depth of pdfelement.
i am using pdfelement 6 pro to edit all types of pdf documents. the ease of adding, deleting, modifying text, and adding images to documents has greatly reduced the time and effort involved in these processes, resulting in very efficient, effective, and professional end result.
"a good alternative to adobe acrobat"
pdf element 6 is easy to use, its intuitive and can quickly be learnt. it's faster than the previous version.
compared to the previous version, the user interface has improved a lot - thanks.
- fast ocr detection, also supports image-based pdfs.
- personal comments with notes or text box.
- creating forms is now a simple process.
- very cheap price compared to adobe acrobat.
in summary: pdfelement 6.x is a very good software with extensive functions for professional work.
pdfelement has an unbeatable price-performance ratio. the software is for me a high quality alternative to expensive adobe products.
i couldn't find anything i did not like about the program. version 5 errors have been fixed in version 6.
this software is excellent, extensive and fast. my recommendation for pdf applications.
"pdfelement 6 pro is a substantial improvement on the previous pdfelement 5"
i have been using the pdfelement 5 for several years. version 6 pro has a better interface. it is also more intutitive and compared to competitors like adobe it is simler to navigate.
i like adding text with ease, the almost flawless oening of scanned documents, making text and picture amendments. also converting the word and pdf files are easier. it keeps the tables and charts in proper place and makes it easier to edit tham according to text i edit.
in filling some forms it still has some difficulty in marking the boxes which could be improved. when opening documents from file is enlarges them and it is with extra effort to make them smaller to edit or see. this can be improved.
switch and use. it is a very useful and practical pdf tool.
i often write articles which need to be shared in pdf version. wityh 6 pro i can productively do this. furthermore i use the ocr in foreign languages quite often.
thank you for your feedback, i'm glad to see that you enjoy pdfelement's new interface.
to clarify, do you find that opening the file in external programs enlarges the check boxes automatically?
"you need pdfelement 6. the pdf program for the cost i've worked with!"
much cleaner than previous version and the speed is better than previous version. the interface is definitely more modern and functions as well as the previous version. the overall look and feel are very professional and allow the user to do just about anything they would want with a pdf file.
it does everything i expected only better than the previous version. i use the expensive adobe version at work and this is as good if not better. i can't image working without it on my projects.
it does everything as advertised and the price is unbelievable. i use constantly and it the best product i've used for the price. as a cpa i can't give pdf element enough kudos for how well it works!
as an accountant i use it quite a bit to fix reports and add items to pdf's that are not editable after download. it's as good as adobe at a fraction of the cost. awesome product! the ability to take multiple pdf files and combine them into on complete package report is invaluable for someone like me. before i have to scan the pages and create a pdf the was too large and bulky to be functional or usable to my end user. your product allows me to do things i never thought possible for the price and my end user are happy too. i love a win-win!
"upgraded to pdfelement 6 pro, well worth it!"
it didn't take me long to be able to maneuver around within this program. set it up as my primary pdf file viewer and away i went!
i was easily able to convert a pdf file and edit it as well. i love the ease of adding text to scanned documents, and watermarks to personal business documents. being able to combine multiple documents is easy to do as well.
i love the ease of just opening the program and then selecting documents from the history to open. very helpful, and easier than finding the document in my files and then opening.
i dislike that whenever a pdf file is opened, it is zoomed in to around 150% or more....i am constantly decreasing the viewing size back to 100%. i will have to use this product even more to come up with anything else negative/constructive feedback wise.
change to pdfelement....it is easy to use!
just using it as my primary pdf viewer, and editor.
"best pdf tool i've used yet!"
pdf element pro 6 takes the limitations off of pdfs. it allows me to work with these documents in a much easier way as if they were word processing documents. i find it is much more user-friendly for completing fillable pdf forms which can sometimes be difficult as well. i often use pdf element pro 6 to convert pdfs i to word documents or excel documents with ease and it saves me a lot of time trying to transcribe or otherwise work with the information on a pdf.
i haven't found anything i dislike about pdf element pro 6, except that my coworkers do not have the program so now they email me files to convert and send back to them!
it took me a little while to get to know how to use pdf element pro 6, so don't underestimate the learning curve. it is a powerful piece of software that can accomplish a lot for you!
the value of an effective and efficient tool to convert pdfs in to spreadsheet or word processing documents is invaluable. it saves everyone in my office a lot of time and we are able to use the valuable information stored in pdfs much easier.
"very nice app to manage pdf documents"
it's very easy to use, and it has all the features i usually need for managing and editing pdf documents. tools are very intuitive, you can start using the app as soon as you install it without having to read any instructions. i especially like the edit function, because it's easy to manage each paragraph, add new text and/or images. you can easily move paragraphs up/down and insert new ones. managing pages is also very easy; you can extract or insert pages very fast.
nothing at this time. i have been able to do everything i have needed.
use the trial version first, so you will know if it really meets all your expectations.
i usually have to edit pdf documents like contracts, manuals, instruction sheets. i also have to join or split documents, and pdf element let me do all these tasks very easily and fast.
i've been using pdfelement for a few years and have just tried the upgrade to pdfelement6. what i love is that it works seamlessly with any file i throw at it and most importantly for me, does a great job of extraction both for word and excel files. conversion to powerpoint is also great although i don't personally use this feature as much.
the other thing i really like about pdfelement is how easy it is to use the page extraction and insertion features as well as editing text. i've found that at times other software can't dismantle a table or elements in a pdf while pdfelement can still extract everything i need from it, so while it was the last pdf editor i used to go to now it's the first one i go to.
just use it. try out the trial software and like i did you'll find yourself upgrading super quickly!
extracting data from tables is my biggest use of pdfelement and at times, slides to powerpoint, although it's mainly data that i need to pull from tables for reports & visualisations, and it saves a lot of time & grief for me.
"meets and exceeds my needs for every aspect of pdf management "
user friendly interface. clean and well laid out making for a good overall user experience. it's easy to navigate and quite intuitive making it easy to find the most important options. fast and accurate. definite improvement over previous version.
what is there to dislike, it does everything i need it to. it seem's to be robust and stable which is a great improvement from the last version.
it's a great program. the developers are working hard to meet all the requirements. it can only get better as they go forward. version 5 definitely had issues but version 6 is a vast improvement! i am confident that if they continue on this path they will become the industry leader in pdf management! move over adobe there's a new pdf champ in town. i have become quite impressed with wondershare products over the last few years. i also use filmora for video editing and am enjoying each new version as they are always improving!
i edit, fill in and sign pdf files regularly,. i use it to convert my word doc files to pdf format. it is a great benefit to be able to manage all my pdf files in the same place.
"pdf element is a great editor and viewer"
it's fast and offers a lot of editing features. sometimes, software that does more than just view files takes too long to load for everyday use. pdf element isn't like this, so it's really convenient for everyday use as a viewer or an editor.
i wish it offered dark modes. it's personal preference, but i don't like bright white windows on my screen. it's annoying to use at night. also, i was really disappointed when considering an upgrade that i could not upgrade to the other platform (i own pdf element 5 for mac but wanted to switch over to the pc version going forward as i've switched platforms.) i was disappointed to learn that there was no upgrade path for this.
i own a copy of pdf element 5 that i've been using for several years. the user interface for version 6 is much cleaner and it's priced very competitively vs. other similar software on the market.
it makes managing lease documents much easier because i combine content from multiple sources, and it's just easier to do as a pdf. pdf element lets me do this and still make final tweaks and edits.
thanks for the feedback, trent.
i really like the idea for dark modes, as it's easier on the eyes. i'll forward both suggestions to the team! let us know if you have any other feedback.
the easy use, and a variety of handy options.
not much - but one thing in the previous version was the limit to 15 open files.
if you are looking for an application that is useful, versatile and offer you good functionality this might be it. i have stopped using other pdf readers and this is what i stick to now, and also for editing pdf files. there are likely additional functions, but the ones available here are the ones required for me in my role as a teacher and administrator in higher education - to be able to easy make changes in some previously uneditable files, etc. what takes plenty of time for some colleagues is an easy and quick fix, using this software. at times i ask myself what amounts of times the application has saved me - and the answer is many hours, every month.
it is helpful in different ways, for example when managing files for student groups.
"robert knauer likes pdf element6 software"
pdfelement6 is so far superior to adobe for the price and its versatility. in pretty much enables me to do everything full adobe allowed me to do, but at a much lower price.
i love that it is menu driven enabling me to view the screen much like windows 10 to easily find what i am looking for....there is literally nothing i don't like about it except giving me more functionality than adobe. for what element6 gives me i am happy.
before spending lots of hard earned money on adobe you should give pdfelement6 a try for the money you simply cannot beat it.
i love the fact that i can cut, copy, past and make changes along with attaching other documents to my project on the fly. for the fact it makes me fully productive and gives me the ability to easily save and send pdf conversions to others gives me the tool i need to help teach my negotiation classes.i love the versatility, ease of use and convenience this product provides me with to do my work.
the ease of editing pdf files is clearly the thing that drew me initially to pdfelement. it has saved me hundreds of hours by not having to recreate every pdf doc over the years.
although intuitive, i'd still like to have some of the image tools enhanced so that removing and adding images from things like banners and footers was simpler.
it has become a true 'go-to' tool for our business. allowing us to focus on our content, creation of results and selling those outcomes rather than spending 100's of hours trying to figure out creatives that means hiring designers constantly to tweak and test tons of options and testing.
i am able to use creative marketing pieces and customize them to our current offerings and timeframes. knowing our market, offers and how to sell is at a very high level. creating the creative and design aspects are great to be able to implement and enhance.
thank you for your feedback regarding additional functionalities for image tools. aside from removing and adding images on banner and footers, is there anything else you would like to see on pdfelement?
"versatile easy to use pdf editor"
pdf element is so easy to use makes it the primary reason i chose to use it for business and home tasks. removing or editing text is a breeze and one of the best features is the ability to remove or extract pages from a document. everything on the screen is laid out in a very simple manner so it takes little if any time to get right into working with the program.
very robust and up to date. i had the full adobe but found it too costly to upgrade. this is much more streamlined and easy to use!
when i send a pdf element file, all others can see it perfectly in their adobe format. being able to send something from pdf element that others can see in their desired format is a great benefit. i always had adobe reader crashing on my and hanging up my computer.
the interface in pdf element 6 has been streamlined throughout and feels more responsive with use. it is very intuitive and easy to navigate.
the simple interface, and easy navigation do not mean a lack of features though. i find pdf element to be capable of all my pdf needs. i can quickly combine multiple files into a single pdf allowing me to share projects containing a variety of file types easily with colleagues.
pdf element doesn't just stop with creation, or converting other file types though. the ocr integration makes it a very powerful tool to turn scanned documents into an easy to edit document.
the ability to edit any pdf file makes it an invaluable tool for me on a regular basis.
i made the switch from acrobat over a year ago, and have not missed it since. pdf element is an excellent replacement at a much more attractive price. i highly recommend it to anyone looking for an alternative.
the cost savings realized with pdf element, without having to give up features have made this software an invaluable asset.
"easy to use for pdf manipulation"
the appearance of pdfelement 6 is much cleaner then version 5. the speed in obtain the files is fast and the changes can be made very quickly. i use it to amend pdf's and with the ocr installed it is very easy. i also use it to convert pdf's to word documents and it does that easily as well. finally, i use it to rearrange documents within a pdf and in my line of work that is priceless. pdfelement is the easiest system that i have used for that process. this is by far the easiest system that i have used.
i have run into situation where the layout of the document has been changed when converting to a word format. i do not know for sure that it is a pdfelement problem but i also do not know that it isn't.
"it was the easiest conversion program i have every used"
i haven't used it enough to find any things about it i don't like yet. as i to use it more i may or may not come up with any things i dislike and i promise i will let you know.
i have to created leases for my rentals and pdfelement makes that a breeze. i haven't used it enough yet, since i am switching from another program. most of the documents i need in my real estate business come as pdf's as protection. they cannot be edited unless converted, and with pdfelement, they are easily converted. as i use it more i will be able to realize more benefits and perhaps some issues.
"save time and money... wow!"
what i like the best is how simple everything is now.
like i said, i love the new layout and everything about it is so different, in a good way.
i would highly recommend... big time!
i solved many problems. i don't have to spend money and hire a professional, i'm the professional using the pdf element 6. it's absolutely perfect for my business needs. the changes are awesome indeed... what i really love is how simple it is to do anything i want inside of the software. for example, when i get ready to place page numbers on all of my pages, it's simple and very easy. also, when i get ready to put links into my headers and footers, it's a snap. i love it. i would love it if the save feature were a little bit bigger, so i'm not looking for it, however, my eye site is not what it used to be. i love the fact that there is a huge improvement over the last product. everything seems to be more user-friendly and easy to use. there is no doubt in my mind that i will be using pdf element 6 a lot more than the other version. place images inside of your documents is also another great feature. you can also move it around anywhere inside of your document and it's the best that i've seen in the market, no doubt. i will use it almost daily when i'm working on my coaching programs and getting my products online. it saves so much money and time that i can continue to spend with my family and friends. let's don't forget the amount of time i can spend in the air, you see, i'm a pilot and i enjoy as much time in the plane as possible. pdf element 6 is the best as far as i'm concerned. i would highly recommend this to all of my friends and business associates. huge improvement over the last version. i've use other pdf software and this truly is the best out there. i would even go as far as buying this for a business friend, no doubt, that i would. like i said before. it saves so much money and time that it is worth the cost easily. i can hardly wait to see what in the world they will do with the next version. i can't imagine what improvements they could do to make it any better. the most awesome pdf software on the market today, no kidding. i've been in online marketing for over 20 years and software like this is a life saver for sure. you can start a project and then finish it up very quickly because it's so simple and easy to use. everyone knows that time and money is a key factor in building your business. i create and market my own products. years ago you would have to hire someone just to put links into your documents, however, with the use of the pdf element, you can do it in a matters of minutes. i love it and will be very excited about all of the new features i can now use inside of the newest version. my name is robert phillips and i highly recommend this software. i will help you in anything to get ready to create.
pdf element is an incredible tool. it's ability to edit directly in pdf documents has saved me many hours of painstaking labour. similarly, being able to seemlessly convert pdf documents to word and excel has helped me provide an efficient and cost effective service to my clients.
spending some time getting to know all the features and functionality in pdf element is definitely worth the effort. i originally purchased the software as a quick fix to a problem i was having but over time i have learnt more and more about the product and every time i use it i become more impressed.
editing pdf documents directly and converting pdf's to word and excel has saved me many many hours of boring and frustrating work.
"easy, fun and great links with ms office"
i started with pdf element 5 to use ocr (czech and english texts) which worked perfectly. than i started with the 6 version and started to admire it because of the interconnection and easy collaboration with the ms office. the file transferability is great, even from pdf to word, or from excel to pdf, very cool graphics interface and work with various elements on the page - pictures, forms, windows, passwords, watermarks, direct scan to ocr, ocr outputs and previews.
"excellent software for editing pdf files and converting them"
i mainly use the software for editing pdf files and exporting them to excel and word documents. it does an amazing job for me. i also occasionally use it to merge files or split them and it works quite well for me. it has saved me time all the time.
i am currently using version 5 which sometimes doesn't convert images properly. this happens to the images like logo etc in the document which gets converted to tiny images and some text in them. however this is not a big problem for me as after conversion, i am always able to add the images again to resemble the original one.
it's a great software. i was struggling with converting pdf files and since i found pdfelement, life is much easier. it's definitely a winner for me.
we send and receive a lot of pdf files and this helps us editing/modifying them if we need to. it's much easier to edit pdf files in pdfelement than any other software. i am liking it. it also helps in password protecting the pdf files, move text and images around etc. overall it does many good things for us and we as business quite liking it.
"absolutely user friendly and make working with pdf fun!"
honestly i can't point out anything that i dislike. looking forward to new updates making this experience even better.
overall great product that serves your needs working with pdf.
the batch processing is an awesome advantage. i use it on a mac and love the user interface. if you work with pdfs you need to have a powerful software to be able to edit pdfs and convert or extract data from it. pdfelement does all of that plus many more awesome capabilities.
je suis très satisfaite de l'utilisation quotidienne du pdfelement pro.
la nouvelle interface est simple et bien faite...et elle te donne une belle lisibilité.
les options ocr sont bien surtout le traitement des pdf en français et anglais.
avec pdfelement la conversion de mes documents pdf en formats ppt et doc est devenue très facile et bien maitrisable.
mon utilisation de pdfelement pendant une durée de 9 mois ma montre que c'est un éditeur de pdf bien a adopté et de recommander aux utilisateurs. c'est pour quoi j'ai bien recommande ce logiciel à mes amies et mes collègues de travail.
the clean and tidy user interface offers a lot of design possibilities under the hood.
convert encrypted pdf file to word, excel, ppt and other file types, allowing further editing, copying and printing.
including ocr in the pro version which is very interesting if searchable documents are needed.
pdf word, excel, ppt, images, text, text, epub ebooks, html and more.
supported image formats are jpg, png, gif, bmp and tiff.
ocr technology also supports image-based pdfs.
convert up to 200 pdfs in one step and 3 minutes.
comment with sticky notes or text box. brighten up important text. provide pdf with stamps. all of them are compatible with acrobat and other popular programs.
add secure passwords to prevent unauthorized opening, copying, editing, extracting and printing of your document.
compress pdf files to a perfect size in good quality to email or upload them to the internet. now resize pdfs in seconds.
great price when compared to adobe.
i couldn't find anything. surely there is always room for improvement, but i can't complain.
on windows, pdfelement is absolutely great and intuitive. i like the design very much and despite the many functions it looks very tidy. if you are looking for a powerful pdf editor, this is the right place.
i rather privately very much solve the pdf processing for documents, invoices, scripts.
you can easily create, edit, print pdf files. also adding images and text is easy. easy to print, easy to prepare documents and forms. i recommend it for every type of user.
the menu bar can be smaller than the current version. the font implementation can be improved. also, ocr can work more smoothly with the other languages than english such as dutch or turkish. it may also provide online translation documents from different languages.
cost effective pdf solution for mid-sized companies. it has all the required features for business owners such as creating, editing pf files and also print features.
thank you for your feedback! which languages do you find difficult to work with in terms of our ocr?
jose de la cruz d.
es una interfaz rapida y facil de utilizar, aunque no tengas experiencia, para el trabajo de oficina o el trabajo de la escuela te permite lograr resultados rápidos al poder guardar y exportar en diferentes formatos.
pdfelement is fast, robust and beautiful pdf editor for mac and windows.
through multiple pdf file processing mode (=work with batch processing) and the commenting tools, highlights and text i was able to accelerate my work and highlight the important elements in my documents.
"easy to use and a good step forward from pdf element 5"
the new menus are easy to use and understand - i sometimes struggled to find the tool i needed when using the 5th edition of pdf element but the new format and layout seems more logical and certainly easier to understand.
the conversion tools are the best in the market (i often use the pdf to excel conversion tool and it provides results which can be relied upon - which cannot be said for any of the other products i've tried over the last few years).
the conversion to word tool, whilst improved still struggles to provide a word document which mirrors the pdf. the text seems to be slightly misaligned on each row which can render the whole conversion unusable.
this product is certainly worth a try if you want a reliable, affordable product for the editing of pdf files and conversion into microsoft office formats.
in our business we sometimes get sent pdfs of information which can run into multiple pages. using the pdf to excel converter, we can literally save ourselves hours of work (so the entire price of the product can be recovered in the first hour of use... and the multiple other hours it saves represent pure profit)!
glad to see that you saw an improvement between pdfelement 5 and pdfelement 6. i appreciate the feedback on the pdf to word confusion - let me know if there has been any improvement in the last few updates!
"convert pdfs to do what you need them to do!"
i love being able to edit product catalogs and documents that come to me for my business!! i have been able to use this program to make individual catalogs for dealers and to not need to print out, write in, and then scan in pdf documents that need to be filled out.
sometimes it can be difficult to figure out the layers and to get things in just the right spot. but i'm on a learning curve, and that's more me than the program. on one catalog i've had a horrendous time getting a black box to print around my business name. i could've asked for help with that, but i didn't.
this makes more sense to me than adobe. the pricing is worth what you get. it's a great value, and it helps flow tremendously.
getting the word out through customized catalogs for my dealers and for my business. our basic product stays the same, but additions and price changes happen each year.
"easy to use pdf managing software"
pdf element is really easy to use, its logic is very intuitive and can quickly be learnt.
i haven't found anything that i really dislike about the software. occasionally the formatting of documents converted to word can be a little complex.comparing it to others i have found it very straightforward.
if you want a very easy to use product for handling all aspects of pdf management, this is the product for you. learning time is short and users who are not familiar with this type of software can quickly learn to use it.
its ease off use makes it readily useable by many people in the office who may only need to use it occasionally. it makes all handling of pdf documents , from signatures, editing and collating very straightforward. i use it a lot for putting separate pdf documents together into a single document. its ability to quickly converts pdfs to word and excel is an excellent feature.
"pdf element 6 review1- james dooley"
"robust pdf editing software - reasonably priced to boot"
i particularly like the wide variety of commenting options available. makes it quick and easy to mark up shared business documents. these tools seem more responsive in version 6 than in previous versions. also, when inserting pages, the program stays on the "page" tab, making it faster to insert other pages. in earlier versions, you had to click the page tab upon every separate insertion.
i can't find much to dislike. a minor glitch: when filling a pdf form field using courier font, it will look ok on screen, but when printed out, words are broken in random places at the right margin. other fonts don't exhibit this, but the first line of a paragraph "returns" far short of the right margin. hopefully they'll get this fixed in a future update.
we do lots of combining of multiple pdfs pulled from separate documents. we also create fillable forms, and send documents around for markup or comments. pdf element makes short work of these tasks.
"best pdf tool ever, easy to use and work with pdf documents"
easy to use and you can edit pdf file with pdfelement like microsoft word. it helps you a lot to save your time. moreover, it help you to create fillable pdf form. with form field recognition feature. the software will auto recognize and create interactive form fill for you. you can edit them later with ease of use. and with the data extraction, you can extract data from form fields or marked pdf to csv file.
moreover, you can add secure passwords to prevent unauthorized opening, copying, editing, extracting and printing of your document. you can export pdf document to microsoft word or microsoft excel that help you save more time and very effective.
to be honest, currently i cannot find any negative issues of pdfelement that should be raised for change or correct.
i recommend pdfelement to others who considering to try.
for me, it is very easy to create fillable pdf forms. it's great.
