PDF Extra 2021 - Professional PDF Editor – Edit, Protect, Annotate, Fill and Sign PDFs - 1 Windows PC/1 User/Lifetime license

Deleting pages was initially annoying but discovered an option. Not as robust as another vendors software, but less expensive! Great product for the money.

No issues for it works just as stated in the advertisement.

Adobe can take some lessons from this program. Although it took a second to get used to the layout of the program after switching from Adobe, it was very intuitive and straightforward. The program in my opinion made improvements where Adobe has failed. Specifically, on the organization of pages, this program allows for editing placement while without changing tabs back and forth. This alone with the work I do is a huge game-changer. Although it is missing a few features such as color editor for annotations, and custom stamps, I havent seen a feature that is vital to what I do. The layout is very sleek and reminds me of the Microsoft Office suite of products. It is pleasant to look at and makes going to any other Adobe alternative a visual nightmare. If the developers are reading this please make a dark mode for the application. it would make a world of difference. The affordability of a lifetime one-time purchase has fallen to the wayside and I am so glad to see it in this. I will be purchasing a few times for my business and it will make all the difference in the monthly fees. I recommend this to anyone who uses light-medium editing on their PDFs. It can make a world of difference in price over time for small businesses and individuals so the single purchase is perfect.

Special forms to sign

I purchased PDF Extra 2021 and the VERY FIRST THING I get when activating the software is an upsell to PDF Extra 2021 Premium. A bit shady, would you say? Time to get a refund.

I have the following needs for a PDF editor 1. One time cost ($99 for a lifetime) 2. Able to switch devices (once linked to the website, I can use it on multiple devices - if only on one device at a time, but that is okay - the point is when my laptop changes in five years, this will port with me, if it is still being supported). 3. Able to sign PDF documents 4. Able to merge PDF documents - Ive been struggling with this, searching for free software each time. I only need it once or twice a year, but it is a pain. 5. Editing an existing PDF document - again, about once a year, I need to do a PDF document into an editable format. Ive been recreating the document in MSWord. This will save keystrokes. Downsides - Professional 1. One assumes under Professional quality product, a bunch of other aspects over and above the bare minimum of my needs will also be available - this really doesnt go there far. See the reviews at the 2 and 3 star level for people who want something above and beyond the basics. Professional implies that someone will pay you to interact with PDF documents, and this product only delivers the basic product. Final - It meets my needs, and is surprisingly versatile in letting me use multiple machines (extra star for that!). The upload is quick and easy and the initial use fine. Im happy.

I occasionally have need of a pdf editing program in order to combine files, or insert pages, nothing too complicated. When I saw that this program did these functions, as well as being able to convert a PDF to Word or Excel, I was anxious to try it. The program installed very easily using the code on the back of the card. I like that its a lifetime license. The user interface is set up with menus similar to windows products, so its pretty intuitive to use. I was able to perform the simple functions I needed, then I experimented a bit. The editing availability seems endless with so many possibilities. My experience with converting a PDF to Excel, though, required a ton of editing of the Excel file created. Every file will be different, of course, depending on whats there. I anticipate using this program a lot in future as I learn more of its many features, and Im happy with what Ive seen so far.

Not what was advertised. I bought it strictly for editing, and that requires upgrade

This is not as user friendly as it can be. After the ease of using PDF products for years this one is pretty cumbersome. Doesn’t feel modern.

Original Download allowed multiple PDFs to be combined. upgrade 7.20.49213.0 removed that ability. Upgrade 7.20.49259.0 restored this feature. Thank you for bringing back my ability to combine several PDFs. (Adobe has gone to monthly/yearly subscription - I want to thank PDF Extra for giving me to option to get away from subscriptions.)
