Another excellent feature is the ability to split and merge PDF files. For me, being able to create PDF forms is a game-changer because it eliminates the need for other software to perform this function. My work has become much more effective because I can easily create, edit, and annotate PDFs.

I would recommend trying the trial version before making a purchase to see if it meets your specific needs. It may also experience crashes or freezing and may be slow when working with large files. However, it can be expensive, the interface can be cluttered, may require a powerful computer, may have limited compatibility with mobile devices, may have certain features limited in functionality, may have unresponsive customer support and may require additional plug-ins. On one hand, the software has great features such as creating, editing, and annotating PDFs, creating PDF forms, merging and splitting PDFs, adding and editing bookmarks, links, headers, and footers, adding and editing digital signatures and export PDFs to multiple formats. I have mixed feelings about the software. Unfortunately, our office used these forms regularly. Even Adobe products don't properly support them.

Dynamic XFA forms are uncommon PDF forms render drawing and layout information. It cannot open dynamic XFA forms, but considering that most non-Adobe PDF editors can't read them, its not unusual. It has reliable OCR built into the software and good tools for optimizing PDFs (reducing size) and for saving as image files (jpeg, png, tiff, etc). It's easy to use- the menu is well designed and its much easier to find the tools I need than Adobe Acrobat with its convoluted odd menu system. Its one of the few PDF editors for Linux. It is truly cross-platform- I used it on my Linux, Windows, and Apple systems without any problem. I use it daily for reducing the size of PDFs and converting them to png image formats for distribution. It is fast, easy to use, has a good UI that allows users to switch between the tradition menu bar and a ribbon bar. PDF Studio is reliable tool for annotating PDFs.
