OrbitNote vs. PDF Xchange Viewer and Editor

I usually recommend OrbitNote for students who have more difficulty with penmanship. I do find that there are a lot of other apps that can cover needed features such as screen reading on a PDF. So usually, I only suggest OrbitNote if A student has difficulty with handwriting.

This software handles large PDF files and has not crashed for me, unlike some other PDF software. It does what I need very well, although it has a lot of features beyond what I need. It extracts and adds documents easily and certainly does well with its search function after applying optical character recognition.

I gave this reading because I do wish that teachers and staff would take a little bit more time to learn about OrbitNote and its features as well as integrated into the classroom. I think that often all of these different computer programs all working in isolation from one another can be overwhelming for teachers and staff to learn

It does everything I need, such as OCR, redaction, Bates stamping, bookmarking, and handling large PDF files without crashing. It also does well with the extraction and addition of documents.

Performance wise, PDF Xchange Viewer and Editor is flawless. It runs fast, and I haven't experienced any immediately crashing. The reports save quickly, and the document size is never an issue. It saves into a regular PDF, and we're able to open it on any other program or computer. All text boxes, features, and headers show up flawlessly on other programs.

The application had no issues (we did not contact support) and that's why I give a 10.

I like how read&write integrates with OrbitNote making it where students do not have to learn multiple tools depending on what they are doing on the computer.

PDF Xchange hits a sweet spot for me and my users. It is powerful, includes a full suite of creation, markup, and management tools. It is very affordable.

Bluebeam is too much that isn't print and PDF related. It is EXPENSIVE ... more than $300 per person before almost mandatory additional training.

PDF Creator is good for PDF creation. It doesn't include markup and management tools.

• It has made it possible for teachers to provide accessible materials to students with just a few clicks.
