    This is the Editor that solved once for all my hunt for a perfect pdf editor

    Edited: Jul 26 2023

    Summary: Best option if you want an editor that works well and it doesn't cost a fortune. I was tired of paying too much.

    Positive: Lightweight, can sign documents, the editor feature has a ton of options, very intuitive, the tab feature allows you to have multiple files open at once and manage them easily.

    Negative: When it's for default as your pdf program, it doesn't show the file's picture.

    Date: Jun 28 2023

    Positive: Easy and sensible program, intuitive and does it all. No other pdf software is any where near PDF Studio. Thanks Qoppa!

    Qoppa's PDF Studio is a brilliant alternative to Adobe without the need for subscription payments

    Date: Jun 15 2023

    Summary: The software is a comprehensive easy-to-use PDF editor that provides all the functions you will need to edit PDFs. The software also costs a fraction of the competing product from Adobe. Aside from the many editing features one of the main things that I also like is that you only pay once for the version of the software that you are interested in. I have recently cancelled my Adobe subscriptions which was costing me a fortune for a ton of software that I simply don't use. I've also seen that the software is available for Windows, macOS and Linux which is brilliant if you use more than one operating system e.g. at home and work. In short if you are looking for a PDF editing solution, you should try out PDF Studio. The software allows you to easily create, convert, review, annotate and edit PDF files. PDF Studio has replaced all my other software that I was using to work with PDFs as I now can get the job done using one application.

    Positive: - Easy to use
    - Provides all functions you need for editing with PDFs
    - Single payment no ongoing subscriptions to use
    - Runs on Windows, macOS and Linux

    Negative: - Difficult to discover on web (swamped out by Adobe's advertising)

    Best Alternative PDF Editor

    Date: Apr 07 2023

    Summary: Finally, a PDF editor that doesn't involve an expensive subscription, plus has all the features without the cluttered UI. It is intuitive to use and I prefer it to Adobe Acrobat, Foxit, PDF XChange, AcePDF, and others. Frankly, I am just relieved to have a perpetual license for a product that just works.

    Positive: - Feature-rich without a messy user interface
    - Able to drag files into the thumbnails pane
    - Simple digital signature and stamp features
    - Streamlined review tools
    - Minimal design is good for reading
    - I like the monochrome icons

    Negative: - I would prefer it if there were more dark themes

    Great Acrobat alternative... and cost!

    Date: Jul 31 2022

    Summary: An excellent, much lower cost alternative to Acrobat if you have MacOS Monterey for example and do not wish to subscribe to Adobe.

    Positive: Great capability, functionality, ease of use and cost.

    As an alternative to Acrobat on MacOS Monterey, it really fits the bill, and works well.

    Negative: Very little actually. The interface could be a bit smarter, but aesthetics do not really matter when the functionality is this good.

    The Best PDF editor for Linux

    Edited: Jul 10 2022

    Summary: If you are a Linux user, you need to try PDF Studio by Qoppa, and if you're a Windows user and wanting to move over to Linux but don't dare because you need a great PDF solution, you just found it!

    Positive: Qoppa PDF Studio is a fantastic piece of software for Linux users (I only use Linux, so I can't speak for the other OSs)
    It does everything that Acrobat,Elements does, and maybe more, and it does it really well! It's by far the best PDF editor solution for Linux! The best part is you only pay once, and you own the software forever, with the option to update to a new version if it has a new feature that you need or want for a discounted price as well!

    Negative: The only problem or annoyance is that the UI scaling on 4K displays is not the best, but you can set the DPI to 1000, and it gets better. The actual documents do not suffer from this scaling issue, the documents you work with are super crisp and clear.

    Great Tool for PDF Form Creation!

    Edited: Jan 25 2022

    Summary: PDF Studio is a great alternative to the "Big Box" product. Paying one price instead of a subscription is a definite selling point for me.

    Positive: The main feature that sold me on PDF Studio was Sequential Renaming. I've had form fields with duplicate names, and this feature made is easy to batch rename all of the fields at once.

    Negative: The layout of the program took a little getting used to, but after a short while it is easy to use.

    Would Recommend

    Date: Jun 29 2021

    Summary: PDF Studio does everything I need from a PDF editor in my legal practice. I am thrilled that this alternative solution exists.

    Positive: Extremely versatile and comprehensive suite of PDF editing tools. I can move pages easily, redact items, sign things digitally both using digital IDs and image files, and add perfect custom watermarks, bookmarks, and page numbers.

    Negative: The 2019 version was a little slow compared to Acrobat, but the 2021 version is much faster and almost instantly responsive.

    Great linux PDF editor

    Date: Apr 29 2021

    Summary: I’ve been using PDF Studio Pro for a week and very happy with performance and features. The batch feature has saved a lot of time and worked for both page rotations and optimizing.

    As Good AS

    Date: Mar 27 2021

    Summary: I was so pleased to find this app. I moved over from Windows where I used Filecenter - not available on Linux. Linux has many decent apps but found none that include the scan ability

    Positive: Really please to find Linux all in one. Unusual to find a ribbon type app in Linux but not a problem after the dreaded Win. Basically everything I would want from an editor.

    Negative: Not found one yet. I have tried it for a couple of days and have not discovered any problems yet.
