Edit and manage PDFs easily wherever you are
PDF Reader is a file editor application that enables you to easily read, edit, and share PDFs. Developed by Kdan Mobile, this program offers a wide range of document-editing features fit for using wherever you are. It also has functions designed for easy handling and improving productivity for the user. PDF Reader is available on PC and mobile devices and integrates seamlessly with the Kdan Cloud service.
All-in-one package
This application’s editor tools enable you to edit the text, images, and hyperlinks on any PDF. You can also annotate by adding handwritten comments, highlighting using different colors, underlining words, and tacking on sticky notes as you would on paper. This is thanks to the software’s freehand writing and drawing feature. It also allows you to sign PDF contracts and fill out forms. Premade signatures can be created and stored in the library so you can just paste them on to save time.
To extract specific content from images, this software also facilitates OCR scanning and converting. Plus, you can split file pages to turn them into separate documents or combine two documents. For other types, this application also allows you to view, store and manage various document formats—such as MS Office, iWorks, text, images, audio, and video files. You can’t work on these, but they can be accessed if you need them while working on PDFs.
Your PDFs, on the other hand, can be accessed from anywhere due to the program’s cross-platform capabilities. You can work on your tablet and easily switch to your computer with its file transfer support. PDFs can be retrieved via your device’s camera, email attachments, social media sharing, and any popular cloud storage service like Dropbox and Google Drive. If you have a Kdan Cloud account, you can sign in and get 500 MB of storage space for free.
Easily work anywhere
Regardless of which platform, this application has an easy-to-use interface with helpful view functions for reading PDFs. You have the option to do single-page or continuous scrolling for both vertical and horizontal orientations. Zooming in and out is also a default tool, as well as the search box for locating specific sections of the file. However, this software’s best user-friendly tool is its Night Mode—the ability to change the page background to day, night, sepia, or a customized theme to lessen the strain on your eyes.
This file reader software also offers document protection functions such as passwords and watermarks—and can decrypt password-protected PDFs in turn. However, this feature and many others can only be unlocked when you upgrade the free version to a paid subscription plan. Document 365 is the premium version of PDF Reader’s capabilities—complete with online conversion to Microsoft Office, iWorks, ePub, text, and image file formats and faxing services. You can then use functions such as Night Mode, the cross-platform syncing, and attaching media files to the documents.
The free and premium tools at your disposal vary for each platform version. You'll have to consult the program’s website to compare them all. However, Document 365 has three subscription plans to solve this: the Monthly, Quarterly, and Annual plans. They include full access to premium features for all devices, 1TB of Kdan Cloud storage, and varying amounts of Kdan Credits for faxes and conversions. These start with a free 7-day trial while there’s a 14-day trial for volume purchase along with an admin center to manage accounts in your team.
More than a file reader
Overall, PDF Reader presents an entire productivity solution designed heavily for extensive PDF use. It has practical features that come in handy when you have different devices for work. Whilst each version has varying tools to offer from the start, the program’s premium plans allow you to access them all.
