Upgraded to 3 stars, hopefully with yet more improvements to come! 10 Fatal Flaws make it unusable (See the list)
Upgrading this from initially one to two, then to three and now to four stars (August 2024) as they have really upped their game with several features added and bugs fixed. Here are the 10 Fatal Flaws that make this software unusable (and not a SINGLE ONE of them has been fixed since I've been in direct contact with them for over half a year): 1) Not being able to EDIT text in a pdf?! (Probably the single most important thing your software can not do without) 2) Not being able to edit whether a font is in bold, italics, etc. 3) Exporting text to Word (or others) without turning it into an IMAGE?! (with completely uneditable text) 4) Command + Z (on Mac - should be 'undo') is not working 5) When text is added, it's impossible to move or highlight the text using the cursor keys and shift (let alone cut/copy/paste) 6) Command + X (cut) does not work although Command + V (paste) does. 7) Once an 'Add Text' cell has been added somewhere in a document, it's IMPOSSIBLE to get back into it, if one has to edit any information. 8) 'Add Text' cell can NOT be moved using cursor keys to place it with more precision 9) If there are boxes to 'tick' you have to do 'Add Text' in order to be able to put an X or a 'tick' - In Acrobat you just TICK and DONE! 10) If you accidentally 'bump' a line of text in a document in Edit mode / Add Text mode, the software FORGETS where the original positioning of the line was and the lines all get SCREWED UP! It's impossible to recover from this, you have to start from scratch! I've been in direct contact with them (the PDF Reader Pro 'Team') for over half a year now and not a SINGLE ONE of these 10 Fatal Flaws has been fixed! It's a shame that you pay $79 for a product that simply does not work. To help prevent others to spend your hard earned money on a dud, is the reason I'm writing this interview. In the unlikely (based on their track record) event PDF Reader Pro Team actually do make any improvements, I will update this review.
