A short PDF editor buying guide
Before paying for a PDF editor, answer a few questions. They will tell you whether to buy, and what to buy.
Ask yourself
- What are my three most common PDF tasks?
- Do my documents contain sensitive data?
- Do I need offline, installed software or is a browser fine?
- Do I need certificate-based digital signatures?

If your tasks are everyday and privacy matters, a free client-side tool wins. If you need specialist professional features, price the paid options against how often you will use them.
