Is this edition right for your task?
A browser PDF editor that documents existing-text editing, form fields, annotations and downloads without installing the desktop app. Files are uploaded for server processing and automatically deleted after two hours. Free use is limited to 200 pages or 50 MB and three tasks per hour. Scanned-image text is not editable as existing text in this tool. This is an assessment of documented scope; we have not independently run this edition’s task fixtures. Check your required tasks and the official purchase terms before switching.
These are documented capabilities, not an independently tested recommendation. Test non-sensitive copies of your own files before switching. Platform support does not establish support for every operating system version.
