PDF-XChange Editor 11.0.1.0

Create, view, edit, annotate, OCR and digitally sign PDF files - and that's just the beginning. Please see below for a breakdown of the main features of PDF-XChange Editor.

More than 70% of the features in PDF-XChange Editor do not require a license to use. The remaining features, which are clearly identified, will place a 'trial' watermark on output if they are used without a license.



Create, view, edit, annotate, OCR and sign PDF files – and that’s just the beginning. If you work with PDF then this fully-customizable product will optimize your work process to levels that no other product can achieve. It can be used to create PDF files from scanned documents, images, text files, Markdown files and much more.

This software can also be used to convert Microsoft Office documents to/from PDF – a feature that many PDF applications do not offer. There are over a hundred features available, including more than thirty tools that can be used to assist in the creation of document comments, annotations and links.

The default OCR engine identifies text in documents and uses it to create an invisible text layer that is placed on top of the existing text. An Enhanced OCR plugin is now included in PDF-XChange Editor Plus.

It is more accurate, dynamic and faster than the default OCR engine (and the previous EOCR plugin) and contains a range of extra features. Over 150 additional languages are now supported!
