PDFpen 8 and PDFpen Pro 8 review: Corporate-grade PDF handling at a small-business price<article>
<section class="page">
<p>
Portable Document Format (PDF) files are ubiquitous, and we’re often called upon to fill them in, or have the strong desire (or a job requirement) to mark them up and pass them on to other people. Apple’s Preview has decent core PDF support, but it’s often frustrating to use and its annotation and editing tools are weak and basic. Adobe, the creator of PDF, will sell you or rent you its Acrobat software, which is expensive and powerful—and remains baffling across each of the multiple major revisions it’s made to the user interface over a decade.</p><p>
This is why I’ve turned to Smile’s
PDFpen and
PDFpen Pro for many years. Version 8 is now out, and it builds on existing strengths, offering high-end features without a sky-high price: It’s $75 for the regular edition and $125 for Pro. (Multi-license pricing is available.) PDFpen Pro includes all of the basic PDFpen’s features and adds a wide variety with more niche appeal, such as Excel file export and autogenerated form fields.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3062951/software-productivity/pdfpen-8-and-pdfpen-pro-8-review-corporate-grade-pdf-handling-at-a-small-business-price.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
